Illinois Sober Living - Halfway House  - Transitional Housing (66)

A Halfway House acts as a residence for those who are recovering from alcohol and drug addiction. The Halfway House is a halfway point between a regular residence and a substance treatment facility. The goal is to provide a pathway to reintegration into society. The Halfway House assists residents in finding employment while also providing them a social group of sober peers, who can act as a support mechanism. Halfway Houses hold individual and group therapy sessions, as well as an array of other rehabilitation programs. The rehabilitation programs assess each resident’s progress in recovery, as well as providing them tools for sober living, and support. This is continuity of care from what was received at the substance abuse treatment center. The rehabilitation program joined with reintegration efforts help equip residents to enter regular, sober society after their time at the Halfway House has come to an end. Most residents must remain in the Halfway House for at least 30 days.
