Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Carthage, IL.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Carthage are managed by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
