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

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in McIntire are run by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse rehab program.
