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

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Boone are operated by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
