About Alpha House

Founded in 1971, Alpha House has provided community-focused substance use disorder treatment for over 50 years. As an ASAM-certified Level 3.5 residential facility, it offers a structured, supportive environment for individuals on their recovery journey. With a 30-bed capacity, Alpha House prioritizes individualized care in a welcoming, home-like setting.
Alpha House takes a whole-person approach to recovery, addressing both substance use and underlying issues like trauma, stigma, and life stressors. Residents participate in individual and group therapy, life skills training, and educational and vocational programs. These services empower individuals to build confidence, develop healthy coping strategies, and work toward long-term sobriety.
Residents share rooms with 3-beds in a structured, community-focused setting that fosters accountability and connection. Daily responsibilities and peer support create a sense of purpose, while access to fitness centers promotes overall well-being. Alpha House provides a safe, stable space where individuals can heal, establish routines, and prepare for independent living.
