In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Bernardston are operated by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction rehab program.
