When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Riverdale are run by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug recovery facility.
