Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Steger, IL.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Steger are run by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue randomly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
