Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Glen Echo, MD.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a clean and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Glen Echo are managed by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The duration 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 drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an addiction treatment program.
