Halfway Houses in New Woodstock are operated by individuals who in many instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
