Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Shumway, IL.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents 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 getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Shumway are managed by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction rehab facility.
