Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Georgetown, IL.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to 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 a setting where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Georgetown are operated by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen randomly to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction rehab facility.
