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

When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober 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 Northbrook are managed by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
