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

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming 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 go where they 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 condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oblong are operated by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen randomly to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction treatment facility.
