When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot 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 sober and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Elmwood are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
