Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - New Douglas, IL.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a sober and healthy environment 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 individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in New Douglas are managed by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
