About this Recovery House

Wayne's House is a licensed men's sober house at 611 Highland Avenue in New Castle, Pennsylvania, the seat of Lawrence County.

A Men's Recovery House on Highland Avenue

The house serves adult men in a single-gender residence in New Castle, a city where the Shenango and Neshannock Rivers meet in the far western part of the state. Highland Avenue sits in a residential part of the city, within reach of downtown New Castle and the services concentrated there.

A For-Profit Recovery House Licensed Under Act 59

Wayne's House is licensed as a for-profit recovery house under Act 59 of 2017. Licensure is voluntary across the state, so a house carrying a full license has specifically agreed to the department's inspection and standards process, a real fact a prospective resident can check before moving in.

New Castle, Seat of Lawrence County

As the Lawrence County seat, New Castle holds the county courthouse, social services and a share of the region's outpatient treatment providers. Pittsburgh sits roughly fifty miles to the northeast, close enough for specialty care the city itself does not offer, while New Castle's own downtown covers most day to day needs on foot or a short drive.

What to Expect From a Licensed Men's Sober House

A DDAP-licensed recovery house has to disclose its rules and fees before a resident signs on, and it operates under a relapse and discharge policy the department can review. That baseline separates a licensed men's sober house like this one from an unregulated rooming arrangement in the same city.

Applying to Wayne's House
