Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - East Winthrop, ME.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful 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 people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive 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 could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in East Winthrop are operated by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
