Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Carpenter, IA.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery 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 requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Carpenter are run by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
