Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - St. Francis, ME.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy 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 for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in St. Francis are operated by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction treatment facility.
