When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they can 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 could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Torrington are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
