Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - East St. Johnsbury, VT.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and supportive 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 someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in East St. Johnsbury are run by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
