A halfway house, sometimes called a recovery house or sober living facility, is a facility which permits a person who is recovering from addiction to live in an environment which will help them re-enter the real world as a drug free individual who wants to lead a more full and wholesome life. After drug treatment, it is sometimes essential for people to live in a halfway house so they may take part in additional counseling and therapy services while also finding a job and a place to live so that they can have everything in their life set up for success and abstinence. A halfway house is sometimes the key to minimize the threat of falling back into drug use, and provides people in Fresno, California who are just getting over addiction the chance to build a happier life for themselves.
