When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober 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 or parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. 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, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Poteet are operated by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction recovery program.
