Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Nelson, VA.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Nelson are operated by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
