When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a clean and healthy environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Apple River are operated by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction treatment facility.
