When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and supportive setting 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 could make the decision 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 is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Milltown are managed by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed 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 submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehab program.
