Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - South Windham, ME.

When someone has conquered 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 lot of hard work. 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 can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. 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, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in South Windham are run by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
