Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - St. Elmo, IL.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in St. Elmo are operated by individuals who in most cases were once occupants 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. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehab program.
