Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lakewood, WA.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone could decide 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 sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lakewood are operated by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse recovery program.
