When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Allston are managed by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
