When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable 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 go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in South El Monte are run by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehabilitation program.
