When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and supportive setting 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 person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Hortense are run by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long 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. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
