Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Skowhegan are operated by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long 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 undergo 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 drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
