When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person may decide 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, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Portsmouth are operated by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen randomly to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an addiction rehabilitation program.
