When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive 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 healthy setting 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 might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Hazel are run by individuals who in many instances were once occupants 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. Tenants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse treatment program.
