Keep It Green - 133 S. Belvidere Avenue Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Keep It Green – 133 S. Belvidere Avenue is a men's sober living home on Belvidere Avenue in York, Pennsylvania, the seat of York County. It is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs as a recovery house under Act 59, and it is one of two addresses that Keep It Green – York LLC runs on the same block.

A Men's Sober House on Belvidere Avenue

This sober living home serves men in recovery, and the single-gender household is the first thing that shapes daily life here: shared bathrooms, house meetings and common space all answer to one population, and a resident is never the odd one out by gender in his own house. Belvidere Avenue sits in a residential section of the city, within walking distance of the downtown business district and the courthouse, which matters for anyone still building a routine around a job, a probation appointment or an outpatient program.

What Pennsylvania Recovery House Licensing Requires

Licensure through the Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs under Act 59 of 2017 is not automatic. A licensed recovery house has passed a life-safety and operations review, keeps a resident population within an approved capacity, and stays subject to inspection. Licensure is voluntary in Pennsylvania, so a house that holds it has chosen to operate under that oversight.

Two Keep It Green Recovery Houses on One York Block

Keep It Green – York LLC runs a second licensed house a few doors down on the same street. Two houses on one block let the operator manage both from a single, consistent set of rules, and a resident who needs a change of housemates without leaving the neighborhood has somewhere to ask.

Recovery Housing in York County

York is the county seat and the commercial center of York County, and that puts a resident close to the county courthouse, WellSpan's York Hospital campus, and the bus routes that run through the city's core. Men leaving treatment or incarceration in the surrounding county tend to land in the city itself first, because the services they need are concentrated here.

What to Ask Before Moving Into This York Sober House

A DDAP license obliges an operator to keep certain things in writing: the weekly fee, the house rules, and a policy for handling relapse and discharge. Anyone considering this address should ask to see them before signing, along with whether Keep It Green – York LLC accepts residents on medication for opioid use disorder.
