Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Akin, IL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Akin are operated by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration 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 drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse treatment facility.
