When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a sober and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Gretna are operated by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction rehabilitation program.
