When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Woodbury are run by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
