Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Bustins Island, ME.

When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Bustins Island are run by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay 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 alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse recovery facility.
