About this Recovery House

Kimball House is a men's recovery home in New Kensington, Pennsylvania, licensed by the Commonwealth's Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs. Just 4 Today Properties operates the house on Kimball Avenue, in Westmoreland County.

A Men's Recovery Home on Kimball Avenue

Kimball Avenue runs through one of New Kensington's older residential grids, a short walk from the commercial stretch of the city's downtown. The house is restricted to men, so bathrooms, house meetings and shared living space serve one population under one set of rules.

Licensed Recovery Housing Under Act 59

Pennsylvania's Act 59 gives the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs authority to license recovery houses that meet the state's operating and safety requirements. Not every recovery house in Pennsylvania carries this license, since it is voluntary, but Kimball House does, and the state's locator tool is the place to confirm licensure status for any Pennsylvania recovery house before moving in.

Getting Around New Kensington

New Kensington sits along Route 366 and the Allegheny River, with Westmoreland Transit service connecting the city to Pittsburgh and to the county seat in Greensburg. For someone rebuilding a routine after treatment, that means outpatient care, court dates and entry-level work are reachable without owning a car.

What to Ask Before Moving Into Kimball House

Applications go directly to Just 4 Today Properties, which also operates houses in Greensburg. Worth asking up front: the weekly cost and what it includes, whether the house accepts medication for opioid use disorder, and how a resident transfers between the operator's houses if the fit at Kimball House turns out wrong.
