Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Silver Bay, NY.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, 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, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Silver Bay are operated by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse recovery program.
