SUBSTANCE ABUSE USE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL WILL RESULT IN EXPULSION Residents suspected of substance abuse will be subject to a urine test. If asked to supply a sample the resident would have two hours to comply. If unable to, or unwilling to that person would be asked to leave. If the resident is away from the house for two or more days, for any reason a urine sample must be obtained before re-entry to the house. Before going on a 48 hour pass a fee of $10.00 must be paid for your test upon coming back into the house. Do not eat food of any kind containing poppy seeds. This is extremely important because if given a urine test you will test positive. If this should occur it will be construed as a positive test result. At this point you will be asked to leave, no exceptions.
Also do not use anything (cough syrup, mouthwash, ect.) that contains alcohol. Use of such products will also show positive test results, and the penalties will be the same. HOUSE RULES Residents must respect the anonymity of all residents. Residents and/or house business is confidential and must not be discussed outside the house meeting. Personal problems should be discussed with a counselor, your support group, and/or your sponsor.

THESE ARE GROUNDS FOR IMMEDIATE EXPULSION
All decisions regarding expulsions will be made at the house manager’s discretion. The house manager must approve all overnight stays off the premises. Plans for an overnight visit should be discussed at the weekly house meeting. Clients who have not completed their 90/90 will be permitted a 48 hour pass every other week. Clients who have completed their 90/90 are eligible for a 48 hour pass weekly if they so desire. All residents are required to stay a minimum of 5 nights per week in house after their 90/90 is complete. Overnights are at the house manager’s discretion. While on an overnight it is the resident’s responsibility to make sure that their chore is done while they are gone.
