Franklin Recovery PHL

About Franklin Recovery PHL

Franklin Recovery PHL is a recovery housing provider in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Franklin Recovery PHL is a nonprofit sober living operator running two men's recovery houses in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

A South Philadelphia Recovery Housing Provider

Franklin Recovery PHL runs its housing program inside South Philadelphia, one of the city's densest residential districts, and keeps both of its addresses within a few blocks of each other. Both houses serve adult men exclusively.

Two Licensed Houses: Taney Street and Etting Street

• A men's sober house on Taney Street in South Philadelphia.
• A men's sober house on Etting Street in South Philadelphia.

Keeping both houses in the same neighborhood means residents share the same SEPTA routes, the same outpatient providers and the same court system no matter which address they are assigned to.

Nonprofit Status and Public Accountability

Franklin Recovery PHL is registered as a nonprofit organization, which requires a level of public accountability, a board and filed records, that a private landlord running a rooming house does not carry.

Act 59 Licensure at Both Addresses

Pennsylvania licenses recovery houses under Act 59 of 2017 through the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs. Franklin Recovery PHL has licensed both of its residences. The Pennsylvania Alliance of Recovery Residences offers a separate voluntary certification track alongside DDAP licensure, distinct from the license both houses already carry.

Serving South Philadelphia and Philadelphia County

Philadelphia functions as both a city and a county, and South Philadelphia is one of its oldest and most densely built sections. That density gives Franklin Recovery PHL's residents easy access to outpatient care, courts and public transit without requiring a car.
