When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again 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 place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Woodlawn are operated by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehab facility.
