When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, 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 getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in New Weston are managed by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
