Halfway House
Crossroads Back Cove is a 12-bed halfway house program for women recovering from drug or alcohol addiction in Portland, Maine. Our program is appropriate for women who have completed short-term, intensive treatment or have had previous experiences in recovery. Twenty-four hour staffing is provided, and all clients participate in treatment planning geared to individual needs and goals. Co-occurring mental health issues are addressed along with substance abuse, with a focus on issues that specifically impact women.
The halfway house program utilizes a phase system of treatment in three life areas: managing emotions and increasing self-awareness; interacting with others; and meeting needs in the community. Clients participate in a variety of educational and therapeutic activities throughout treatment, gradually gaining skills and demonstrating growth in each area. Clients are required to work, attend school, volunteer or engage in some other meaningful activities outside of the program in the latter phases of treatment. Aftercare planning includes referrals to appropriate community resources for counseling, housing, medical and psychiatric care, education, work and/or vocational rehabilitation, as needed. Treatment duration is typically 4 - 6 months, depending upon individual need.
