Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - New Gloucester, ME.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in New Gloucester are operated by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in an addiction rehab program.
