Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Fort Washington, MD.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a clean 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 parole for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Fort Washington are run by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction rehab facility.
