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

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Spencer are operated by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
