When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. 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 healthy 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 or parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Elkland are managed by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
