Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Newport, VA.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Newport are managed by people who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
