When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.
Halfway Houses in Stockton Springs are managed by people 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 typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
