Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Ashland, KY.

When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Ashland are operated by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen randomly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
