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

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting 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 someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in New Sweden are managed by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
