Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Springfield, ME.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing 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 Springfield are run by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
