When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive setting 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 make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Childress are run by individuals who in most cases 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 are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
