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

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and positive setting until they are able to 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 decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Effingham are run by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
