When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and positive setting until they can 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 could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants 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, finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Norris are run by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction rehabilitation program.
