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.

Alternative Counseling Associates (ACA House) helps adult men recover from drug and alcohol addiction through a supportive sober living house in Pottstown, Pennsylvania. They serve men who have completed inpatient treatment and are ready for the next step. What makes ACA House unique is that while they do not provide Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), they welcome men who are currently using MAT as part of their recovery. ACA House focuses on healing the whole person—mentally, physically, and spiritually. Their program includes weekly individual sessions, daily group therapy, family meetings, relapse prevention, and pet therapy. The 12-Step approach is central, helping residents grow in confidence, responsibility, and purpose. These therapies give clients the tools they need for long-term sobriety and personal growth. Residents live in structured, substance-free homes with clear rules and supportive staff. Everyone is expected to stay sober, attend meetings, and either work or pursue education. The homes offer a safe and stable environment where men in recovery can rebuild their lives, learn life skills, and support each other as they move forward.
