Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Hillside, IL.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Hillside are run by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehab facility.
