Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Severance, NY.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Severance are managed by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual 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 undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse treatment facility.
