When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Bangor are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse recovery program.
