About Foundation House
Portland, Maine, is a picturesque New England city steeped in culture and history. Surrounded by lush woodlands and tranquil beaches, but with easy access to urban amenities, it’s the ideal place to live while working on recovery. Foundation House is an addiction treatment facility that offers residential treatment and an intensive outpatient (IOP) program for young men. They go above and beyond standard drug rehab providers and offer a full spectrum of wraparound services to help men heal and establish stable, productive and healthy futures.
This addiction treatment center is particularly interesting because in addition to things like cooking classes, yoga, gym membership and woodworking, participants can take part in adventurous outings from kayaking to wilderness expeditions. Alumni can even take part in international group travel. Every couple of years, the organization takes alumni on an international trip where attendees learn more about the world through meaningful, immersive experiences.
As an example, the group recently traveled to Patagonia to witness the effects of climate change firsthand while exploring one of the world’s most scenic natural areas. Often, people in recovery worry that a sober life may be boring and uninteresting. Foundation House proves it’s quite the opposite.
Moreover, Foundation House stays abreast of the latest advances in addiction treatment and health science. They employ experiential therapies and have a therapeutic float spa, complete with a sensory deprivation chamber where residents can go to relax, meditate and center themselves.
Plus, through offerings like counseling and holistic health lessons, the center teaches men how to care for their mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and social health once treatment is over. Upon enrolling in the program clients work with staff to design an individualized treatment plan based on their needs and goals.
Rather than focusing solely on addiction, staff strive to help people achieve their dreams through services like life skills training, job hunting help and enrichment experiences. Many men return to school or full-time work and transition to independent living while enrolled in Foundation House programs.

I was through the house in 2002 2003 and it changed my life. Because of the six month program that I went through here I have been able to stay sober for over 11 and a half years . This place is not here to learn how to not drink it is here to learn about yourself so you could choose to not drink.

Other Forms of Payment
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.
Addiction Treatments
Levels of Care
Inpatient Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
Sober Living Homes Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.
12-Step 12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).
Aftercare Support Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).
Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in Arizona is the process of treating individuals who are dependent on a particular addictive drug. Because addiction is complex, this treatment typically includes a variety of interventions that address the many physical and emotional issues involved.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
Programs
Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.
Young Adult Program
Young adulthood can be an exciting, yet difficult, time of transition. Individuals in their late teens to mid-20s face unique stressors related to school, jobs, families, and social circles, which can lead to a rise in substance use. Rehab centers with dedicated young adult programs will include activities and amenities that cater to this age group, with an emphasis on specialized counseling, peer socialization, and ongoing aftercare.
Clinical Services
Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.
