When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable 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 recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Williamsburg are operated by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse treatment facility.
