When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up 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 an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment 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 the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Illinois City are run by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
