Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Thornton, IA.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to 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 after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Thornton are managed by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
