When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Ellinger are managed by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen randomly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction treatment program.
