When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in North Dartmouth are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
