Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Cairo, IL.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Cairo are managed by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
