Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Paterson, WA.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting 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 person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Paterson are run by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
