When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive 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 individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Hagerstown are managed by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
