Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Oakland, IL.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and healthy 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 person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oakland are run by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
