Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lakeview, NC.

When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort.

Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lakeview are run by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug recovery facility.
