Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - North Washington, IA.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to 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 people in recovery can live in a sober and positive environment 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 someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in North Washington are run by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehab program.
