When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Sedalia are operated by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
