In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives.

Halfway Houses in Knoxville are managed by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
