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

When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Jamaica are managed by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse recovery facility.
