When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Star are managed by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
