Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Laurel, IA.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Laurel are run by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction rehab facility.
