When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a sober and supportive 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 might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Oconto are operated by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction recovery program.
