Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Scotland, PA.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming 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 recovering individuals can go where they 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 term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are 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 Scotland are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time 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 are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction treatment program.
