The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in an addiction rehabilitation program.
