Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Chicago Heights, IL.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Chicago Heights are managed by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
