When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Port St. Joe are managed by people who in many instances were once tenants 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 must comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
