In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Cherokee are run by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse recovery facility.
