When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual could decide 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 working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Seven Oaks are run by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long 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. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
