When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Aplington are run by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an addiction treatment program.
