Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Evanston, IL.

When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive 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 recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Evanston are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehab program.
