Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - New Portland, ME.

When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are 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 New Portland are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
