Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Calhoun, IL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place 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 condition of a person's parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Calhoun are managed by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse recovery facility.
