When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Crest Hill are run by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
