When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, 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 getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Fort Garland are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
