When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Walnut Creek are operated by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live 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 take place regularly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
