Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Dawson, IA.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Dawson are run by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse rehab facility.
