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

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals 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 person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Philo are run by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse recovery facility.
