A halfway house, also known as a recovery house or sober living facility, is a type of center or home which allows a person who is recovering from addiction to reside in an environment which will help them re-acclimate to the real world as a drug free person that intends on leading a more full and wholesome life. After alcohol and drug rehabilitation, it is often necessary for individuals to reside in a halfway house so they may partake in additional counseling and therapy services while also locating a job and housing so that they can have all logistics in their life set up for success and sobriety. A halfway house is a way to minimize the threat of relapse, and gives persons in Blythe who are just getting over addiction the chance to make a real life for themselves.
