When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back 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 an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents 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, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in University Heights are operated by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
