When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back 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 place where people in recovery can live in a clean and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Brandenburg are managed by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehab facility.
