When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Alfred are operated by people who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse recovery facility.
