Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - White Lake, NY.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and healthy environment until they can 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 person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in White Lake are managed by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction treatment facility.
