When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning 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 a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Phippsburg are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehab program.
