Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Bernard, IA.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back 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 people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Bernard are run by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue randomly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
