When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Raleigh are run by people who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction recovery facility.
