Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Portland, ND.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants 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 finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Portland are operated by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
