Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Newcastle, ME.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Newcastle are operated by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse treatment program.
