Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Oregon, MO.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and positive 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 or parole for example, or the person might 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, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oregon are run by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
