When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in New Sharon are operated by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
