Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Round Lake, IL.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a clean and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Round Lake are managed by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
