Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Kensington, MD.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Kensington are run by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration 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. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
