Central Pennsylvania Recovery Associates - Roosevelt Avenue Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Central Pennsylvania Recovery Associates – Roosevelt Avenue is a men's sober house in York, Pennsylvania, in York County. Roosevelt Avenue runs through one of the city's north-side residential blocks.

A Men's Sober House on Roosevelt Avenue

The house serves adult men in recovery. Roosevelt Avenue sits north of downtown York, an area of single- and two-family homes within walking distance of corner groceries and a short bus ride from the courthouse and the county's outpatient treatment providers downtown.

Licensed Under Pennsylvania's Act 59

The residence is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs as a recovery house, the credential the state created under Act 59 of 2017 for exactly this kind of housing. Licensure is voluntary in Pennsylvania, so it is a choice the operator made rather than a requirement it had to meet.

York's Role in York County Recovery Housing

As the county seat, York holds the courts, the largest hospital system and most of the entry-level jobs available in York County, and that concentration is why so much of the county's recovery housing sits inside city limits rather than in its smaller boroughs.

Part of a Nine-House Network

Central Pennsylvania Recovery Associates licenses nine recovery houses across York, housing men and women at separate addresses. The Roosevelt Avenue house is one of seven the operator runs for men in the city.
