When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Fort Lee are run by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehab program.
