Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Colchester, IL.

When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive setting 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 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 sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Colchester are run by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
