When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in South Dennis are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction recovery program.
