Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Brooklin, ME.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and 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 parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Brooklin are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
