man ROXIE, what is going on with u and all these posts? R U losing your mind? :laugh: . A halfway house is where one lives after release from rehab. It is the mid point between rehab colony and going home. Sorta like being slowly re-introduced into society.

I am like a kid in a candy store today. This is the first time I have had some real internet time in the last few weeks.

 

Thanks ALPHA... my eternal source of knowledge! :)

 

Just wondering the difference because I heard my ex's new gf's soon to be ex husband has been released to a halfway house. I guess he spent about two weeks in jail, then went to rehab and is now is a halfway house. Is rehab usually 28 days as in most 28 day programs? I know I must sound so naive about this stuff.
