Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Berkeley, IL.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting 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 individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Berkeley are run by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
