When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Hunters are run by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to live 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 entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
