Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Chatham, IL.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a 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 great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and healthy environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Chatham are managed by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehab program.
