Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Sterling, 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 successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and positive 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 someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Sterling are run by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction recovery facility.
