Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Bergen, NY.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Bergen are managed by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long 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. Residents are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
