Focus

This center treats substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health conditions. Your treatment plan addresses each condition at once with personalized, compassionate care for comprehensive healing.

Since 1997, Beacon House has offered men a safe, structured home to support their journey toward long-term sobriety. Focused on those recovering from alcohol and drug addiction, the center uses a transitional living model. Residents receive referrals to intensive outpatient care, life skills training, and peer support, guiding them toward independence and lasting recovery. The center offers a highly structured, abstinence-based program with daily 12-step meetings, on-site case management, and peer-led support. Residents typically stay 6 to 18 months, engaging in therapy, IOP, and aftercare. The program stands out for its balance of accountability, community connection, and individualized care, all designed to support recovery beyond treatment. At Beacon House, residents enjoy a living environment with shared rooms for three men, each furnished with beds, dressers, and essential amenities. The facility includes a fully equipped kitchen, laundry room, gym, and recreation area, providing comfort and convenience. New residents follow a curfew of 11 p.m. for the first 30 days, with later curfews on weekends. Visitors are allowed during set hours, and weekend passes become available after 30 days. The space promotes recovery while balancing personal freedom and accountability.
