Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Newtown, CT.

When someone has overcome 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, 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 healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Newtown are run by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
