A Men's Sober House on Shippen Street

Shippen Street runs through a settled residential stretch north of Lancaster's downtown, and this house serves men in recovery under a single-gender arrangement common to licensed recovery housing in the city. House rules, meetings and shared space apply the same way to everyone living there.

What a Full DDAP License Does Not Tell You

A full, active license from the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs confirms the address meets the state's recovery-house standards under Act 59. It does not certify a particular treatment model, since Pennsylvania's certification is a separate track run by the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, and no public roster confirms individual addresses against it. Licensure and certification answer different questions, and it helps to know which one a given fact is answering.
