When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Helena are managed by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
