When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and supportive 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 decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in East Woodstock are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction treatment facility.
