When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Calumet are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehabilitation program.
