When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Jobstown are run by individuals 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 must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug recovery facility.
