When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Covington are operated by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse recovery program.
