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

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Hawthorne are operated by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
