At our community, we maintain a strict policy of zero tolerance for drug or alcohol use, both on and off the property. As part of our commitment to providing a safe and supportive environment, we conduct regular random drug and alcohol tests, typically utilizing 12-panel screening. It’s important to note that refusal to submit to a drug test will be treated in the same manner as a positive test result. This approach ensures the well-being and accountability of all our residents, fostering an atmosphere conducive to successful recovery and personal growth.
No. Shared Haven residents are expected to purchase and prepare their own food for meals. We do, however, provide all cooking utensils and appliances needed to prepare those meals.
