Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Fort Polk, LA.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again 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 a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do 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 Fort Polk are managed by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
