When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and healthy environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Poole are managed by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an addiction rehabilitation program.
