When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own.

In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Raceland are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
