When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Mingo are managed by people who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
