When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person might 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 drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in San Diego are managed by people who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
