When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants 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, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Birmingham are run by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation program.
