When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide 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 working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Story City are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction recovery program.
