Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Benton, IA.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Benton are managed by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in an alcohol or drug recovery facility.
