When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive 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 drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. 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 finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Natick are run by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, 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 happen frequently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction treatment program.
