When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up 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 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 term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Port Isabel are managed by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehab facility.
