About this Recovery House

A Women's Recovery House in New Castle

The house serves adult women in a single-gender residence on Cedar Street, in a city known locally as the birthplace of the American fireworks industry and still home to Zambelli Fireworks. New Castle's residential streets sit close together and are easy to navigate without a car, which matters for someone rebuilding a daily routine after treatment.

Run as a Nonprofit Recovery House

Mildred Manor is licensed as a nonprofit recovery house by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs under Act 59 of 2017. A nonprofit structure typically ties a house's finances to its mission rather than to outside investors, and pairing that with a full state license gives a prospective resident two separate, checkable facts about how it is run.

Lawrence County's Seat on the Shenango River

New Castle sits where the Shenango and Neshannock Rivers meet, in the far western part of the state not far from the Ohio border. As the county seat, it holds Lawrence County's courthouse, social services and much of its outpatient treatment capacity, and Pittsburgh is close enough, about fifty miles northwest, for residents who need care the city itself does not offer.

What a DDAP License Means Here

Because licensure is voluntary in Pennsylvania, a house that holds a full DDAP license has specifically opted into the department's inspection and standards process. That is the clearest public record available for a recovery house in a state where the NARR affiliate does not publish a residence-level directory.

Applying to Mildred Manor

Applications go directly to Mildred Manor. A prospective resident or family member should ask what the weekly structure looks like, how the house handles a relapse, and what the fee covers, since a licensed nonprofit recovery house should have written answers ready.
