Homage Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Homage is a men's sober living home on Third Avenue in Butler, Pennsylvania, the seat of Butler County. It is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs and operated by JSB Works LLC.

A Licensed Men's Recovery House on Third Avenue

Homage holds a DDAP license under Act 59, the state law that governs recovery house licensure in Pennsylvania, and the license lists the house as serving adult men. That license means the property has been inspected and meets the state's health and safety standards for a recovery residence, a different bar than certification against a code of ethics but a meaningful one on its own. The house sits on Third Avenue, close to downtown Butler's shops and courthouse.

What a DDAP License Covers

Pennsylvania's Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs licenses recovery houses on a voluntary basis, and Homage is one of the houses in Butler that has chosen to carry that license. Licensure and certification are two separate processes for a Pennsylvania recovery residence, and a house can hold either, both, or neither without changing whether it is operating legally, but a license is a record a prospective resident can check.

Butler, the Seat of Butler County

Downtown Butler sits a short walk from Third Avenue, and the city serves as the government and medical center for the surrounding county. AHN Butler Memorial Hospital, the Butler County Courthouse and several outpatient treatment providers are all within a few minutes of the house, which matters for a resident managing court dates, medical appointments and outpatient care at the same time.

One of Five JSB Works Homes in Butler

Homage is one of five sober living homes JSB Works LLC runs in the city. Applications go through the operator directly, and a prospective resident should ask what the license covers, what the weekly cost includes, and how the house handles a relapse before moving in.
