Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Columbia, LA.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Columbia are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
