Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - East Providence, RI.

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in East Providence are run by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an addiction treatment program.
