About FIRST STOP RECOVERY

First Stop Recovery offers a low barrier recovery housing option for men and women affected from substance use, homelessness and reentry after incarceration through its Kensington Recovery House program in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

I've learned this nonprofit provides sober supportive housing, meals, peer support and connections to counseling and employment.

The program emphasizes an open door, peer led model instead of a clinical treatment model.

Recovery Housing and Support Services at Kensington Recovery House

The facility promises no cost to low cost recovery housing in a sober supportive home with meals, chores, curfew and no time limit for residents actively working on recovery.

I've learned the organization accepts online self and agency referrals from caseworkers, parole officers, hospitals and courts.

The staff can explain house expectations, discuss the abstinence based approach and help residents access supportive services.
