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

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Pownal are operated by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
