Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Lanham, MD.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery 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 condition of a person's probation for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lanham are run by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time 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. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehab program.
