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

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oskaloosa are operated by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
