Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Sanford, ME.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Sanford are operated by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
