Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Wakefield, VA.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Wakefield are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
