A Women's Sober House on Carlisle Avenue

This address and a second Safe Haven house nearby on Carlisle Avenue make up the operator's women's housing, run separately from its four men's addresses on West Market Street across town.

What to Ask Before Moving Into This York Sober House

Safe Haven's program centers on ninety twelve-step meetings in ninety days, so a woman considering this house can reasonably ask how that requirement is tracked, what the weekly house meeting covers beyond attendance, and how the step-down option works once program requirements are met. Because Safe Haven coordinates with local outpatient providers, it is also worth asking how that referral process works for someone who needs more clinical support.

PARR and NARR Accreditation

Safe Haven states on its own site that its program carries full accreditation from the Pennsylvania Alliance of Recovery Residences and the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, which commits the operator to disclosed fees, a written code of ethics and an outside complaint process.
