Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oakdale are operated by people who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
