Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Burke, NY.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Burke are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse treatment facility.
