Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Wilmington, IL.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free 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 probation or parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Wilmington are managed by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehab facility.
