When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals 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 condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Perry are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
