When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting 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 person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Dana are run by people who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
