When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Eastman are operated by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation program.
