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

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't 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, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term 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 rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Metcalf are managed by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction recovery facility.
