Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Pembroke Township, IL.

When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, 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 hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Pembroke Township are operated by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
