Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Potsdam, NY.

When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal 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 clean and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Potsdam are managed by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
