When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring 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 a place where recovering individuals can live in a clean and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants 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 getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Lawton are managed by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction rehab facility.
