Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Berne, NY.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again 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 setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants 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 employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Berne are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay 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 being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction recovery program.
