Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Kirkland, IL.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Kirkland are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
