When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back 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 go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Townsend are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehab program.
