When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Warrenville are operated by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to remain 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 before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
