When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Rochdale are operated by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
