When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Mclean are operated by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
