When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in East Freedom are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
