When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Pasadena are run by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
