A halfway house, also known as a recovery house or sober living facility, is a facility which enables a person who is just getting over addiction to reside in an environment which will help them re-enter society as an abstinent individual who wants to lead a more full and wholesome life. Immediately after alcohol and drug treatment, it is sometimes essential for people to live in a halfway house where they can take part in further counseling and therapy services while at the same time finding employment and a place to live so that they can have all logistics in their lives set up for success and abstinence. A halfway house is a way to decrease the risk of falling back into drug use, and offers people in Discovery Bay, California who are just getting over addiction the opportunity to make a happier life for themselves.
