Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Fort Kent, ME.

When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Fort Kent are managed by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug recovery program.
