Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Ellicottville, NY.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable 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 drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Ellicottville are run by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
