When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a sober and healthy environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants 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 finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Marengo are managed by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction recovery program.
