Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Scotland, CT.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals 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 someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Scotland are managed by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
