When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Bath are operated by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
