When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and supportive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Ira are operated by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
