Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Oakland, KY.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oakland are run by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction rehab facility.
