Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Winchester, IL.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. 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 sober and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Winchester are operated by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
