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

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Secretary are managed by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
