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

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy environment until they can 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 may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Astoria are operated by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
