When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and positive setting until they are able to live stably 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 following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Clive are run by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly 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 frequently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
