Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Athens, MI.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Athens are operated by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen randomly to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
