Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Gaithersburg, MD.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants 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 getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Gaithersburg are operated by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents 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 substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction treatment program.
