When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back 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 people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and healthy 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 or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Harford are run by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction treatment program.
