When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not 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, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals 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 requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Bridgeview are operated by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
