Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Alton, IL.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Alton are run by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
