When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Mount Pleasant are managed by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
