Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - East Orland, ME.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, 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, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in East Orland are operated by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
