When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and healthy environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Hollywood are managed by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
