Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Dow City, IA.

When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting 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 requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Dow City are managed by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
