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

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Madison are operated by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
