When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Folcroft are managed by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
