Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Elmwood Park, IL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Elmwood Park are run by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehab facility.
