Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Gibson, IA.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Gibson are managed by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in an addiction recovery program.
