Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Athol Springs, NY.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal 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 healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Athol Springs are operated by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
