Halfway Houses in St. Helens are run by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an addiction rehab program.
