Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Caribou, ME.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Caribou are operated by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehab facility.
