How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehab facility.
