Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Lisbon, ME.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lisbon are run by people who in many instances 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 must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehab facility.
