Atlas House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Atlas House is a men's sober living home in Butler, Pennsylvania, the seat of Butler County.

A Men's Sober House on Center Avenue

Atlas House houses adult men in recovery from an address on Center Avenue, in a residential section of Butler. A single-gender household keeps the property's rules, meetings and shared spaces oriented to one population, which is the main structural fact a prospective resident can rely on before ever visiting.

Licensed Recovery Housing in Butler County

The house is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs as a recovery house under Act 59 of 2017. Butler County has a modest number of licensed recovery houses relative to Allegheny County next door, so a licensed address inside Butler itself is a real option for someone who wants to stay close to the county seat rather than commute into Pittsburgh for housing.

Butler's Place Near Pittsburgh

Butler is the seat of Butler County and sits roughly thirty-five miles north of Pittsburgh along Route 8, close enough for a resident to reach Allegheny County's job market and treatment providers without living inside the city. Butler Memorial Hospital and Butler County Community College are both in town, and Slippery Rock University is a short drive north.

Applying to Atlas House

Atlas House takes applications directly. Before moving in, a prospective resident should confirm the house's expectations around work or school, how it handles a relapse, and whether medication for opioid use disorder is accepted. Pennsylvania's recovery house certification guide outlines the broader standards a licensed Pennsylvania house is expected to meet.
