Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Benson, MD.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful 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 drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Benson are operated by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction rehab program.
