Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - New Milford, NY.

When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in New Milford are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long 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 comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
