Laurel House Recovery Women's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Laurel House Recovery is a women's sober living home on West Park Street in Honesdale, Pennsylvania, the seat of Wayne County. It is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs as a recovery house under Act 59 and operated by Allerand Recovery Holdings (ARH).

A Women's Sober House in Honesdale

Laurel House Recovery serves women only, which sets the tone for the household: shared space, house meetings and staffing all answer to one population, and a resident is never navigating recovery in a mixed-gender building. West Park Street sits close to Honesdale's small downtown, where a handful of outpatient providers and the county courthouse are within a short drive.

What a DDAP Recovery House License Establishes

Licensing through the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs is voluntary, so a recovery house that carries one has agreed to an approved resident capacity, a life-safety review and ongoing inspection. That record exists for Laurel House Recovery, and it is the clearest public fact a prospective resident or family member can check before committing to an address in a small county with few housing options.

Honesdale and Wayne County Recovery Housing

Honesdale is the only incorporated borough serving as a county seat in Wayne County, and it functions as the area's hub for courts, county services and the handful of outpatient treatment providers covering this part of northeastern Pennsylvania. A woman leaving treatment elsewhere in the Poconos region is likely to land in Honesdale first, simply because that is where the services are.

Applying to This Honesdale Recovery House

Allerand Recovery Holdings handles applications for this address directly. Worth asking before moving in: what the weekly cost covers, whether a house manager lives on site, how the house handles a relapse, and whether residents on medication for opioid use disorder are accepted. A licensed recovery house should have all of that in writing.
