Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Palestine, IL.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to 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 recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Palestine are operated by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction recovery program.
