When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal 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 positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Lake Luzerne are run by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
