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

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Winthrop are operated by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation facility.
