A Men's Sober House on West Market Street

This sober living home in York serves men in recovery. West Market Street runs directly into downtown York, putting the house closer to the city's commercial core than most recovery housing in the area. That proximity cuts down the distance between a resident's front door and the job, meeting or appointment he needs to reach.

Licensed Recovery Housing Under Pennsylvania Law

The Pennsylvania Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs licenses recovery houses under Act 59 of 2017. Licensure is voluntary across the state, and not every recovery house carries it, so a licensed address is one specific thing a prospective resident can verify.

West Market Street's Downtown Location for This Sober House

Downtown York sits at the west end of this street, with Central Market House, the county courthouse and most of the city's outpatient treatment providers within a short walk or a single rabbittransit bus ride. A resident does not need a car to keep his daily obligations in this part of the city.

Three Men's Sober Houses Under One York Operator

Keep It Green – York runs three men's houses and two women's houses across the city, and the West Market Street address is one of the men's residences. Consistency across an operator's houses, in rules and in expectations, is one advantage of a multi-house provider over a single landlord running one address.

What to Confirm Before Applying to This Sober Living Home

Anyone applying to the West Market Street house should ask Keep It Green – York directly what the weekly cost covers, whether a house manager lives on site, and how a relapse or rule violation is handled. A licensed operator should be able to answer all three in writing before move-in.
