About Us
We provide safe, drug free and affordable living to allow men and women to grow in their recovery from substance abuse disorders and strengthen their spiritual conditioning. Currently, we have six men’s facilities and one ladies’ facility in Anne Arundel County, MD.
Goals of Opportunity House
- Develop health and wellness
- Grow and become responsible
- Operate as a team member
- Learn to live life in recovery
- Become a productive member of society
- Help and mentor other men and women in their recovery
We welcome referrals from health care providers and local substance abuse treatment centers but do not offer clinical rehabilitation or detox services on site. Instead, each Opportunity House offers sober living in a safe, structured and supportive environment. If you are seeking information on licensed health care providers such as inpatient rehabilitation centers, detox facilities and other clinical care, contact Maryland State Alcohol and Drug Abuse Administration.
