Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Carol Stream are run by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
