Herkey Houses - Boas Street Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Herkey Houses – Boas Street is a sober house in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Herkey Houses operates a men's sober living home on Boas Street in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in Dauphin County.

A Men's Sober House on Boas Street

This Harrisburg recovery home houses men on Boas Street, a residential block in the Midtown section of the city, north of the Capitol Complex and close to downtown.

Licensed as a Pennsylvania Recovery House

The house is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs as a recovery house under Act 59 of 2017. Because Pennsylvania licensure is voluntary, an applicant can treat the license as a real signal that the house has gone through DDAP's review.

Midtown Harrisburg's Location

Midtown sits between downtown Harrisburg and the neighborhoods further north, giving residents a short trip to the Dauphin County courthouse, UPMC Harrisburg, and Capital Area Transit's main routes. State government offices, and the entry-level jobs that come with them, are within walking distance for a resident without a car.

Part of a Multi-City Pennsylvania Operator

Herkey Houses runs licensed recovery houses in several Pennsylvania cities beyond Harrisburg, including Lancaster and York. A resident who later needs a different city can raise that with an operator that already runs housing there.

What to Confirm With Herkey Houses

Ask directly about the weekly fee, whether a house manager is on site, and how the house handles a relapse. A licensed recovery house is required to have written answers to each of those questions.
