When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Atlantic are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The duration 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. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
