Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Essex, MD.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Essex are run by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction recovery program.
