When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Mount Erie are managed by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse recovery facility.
