When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't 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, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, 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, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Columbus are operated by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse recovery program.
