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

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Pocahontas are run by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
