When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might 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 working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Ava are operated by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
