When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Clarksville are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction recovery program.
