Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Atlantic, IA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Atlantic are managed by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse rehab program.
