Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Lingo, NM.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lingo are run by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehab facility.
