When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, 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 effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a clean and 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 someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Milwaukee are run by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
