Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Newell, IA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober 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 Newell are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
