Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Guernsey, IA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a 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 effort. 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 positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Guernsey are operated by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
