Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Chester, SD.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Chester are run by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
