Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Laurel, NY.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Laurel are run by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation program.
