When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as 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 parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Watertown are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction recovery facility.
