When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting 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 the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Des Lacs are run by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
