When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive 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 the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in California Hot Springs are managed by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
