When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition 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 rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Avon are operated by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically 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 take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction recovery facility.
