Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Mount Rainier, MD.

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Mount Rainier are managed by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse treatment program.
