Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Mercer, PA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as 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 confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants 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 Mercer are run by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehab program.
