Halfway Houses in Lafayette are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse treatment facility.
