Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Houghton, IA.

When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently 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 after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober 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 employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Houghton are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to 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 drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
