The Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP) visited Pennsylvania's first licensed recovery house, We Have a Choice Justin's House for Men, to highlight the importance of becoming licensed. Beginning June 9, 2022, DDAP will have the authority to impose fines on operators of unlicensed recovery houses that receive public funding.


"The Wolf Administration is dedicated to ensuring that Pennsylvanians are supported through all phases of their recovery journey," said Special Assistant to the DDAP Secretary, Steve Ross. "Without recovery housing standards or protections, there are unknown numbers of substandard facilities exploiting this vulnerable population. These regulations are a significant step in ensuring safe, supportive housing for Pennsylvanians in recovery from substance use disorder."


The purpose of the licensure program is to help empower sustained recovery for individuals with substance use disorder by ensuring a network of safe drug and alcohol recovery houses across the commonwealth. Individuals can find a listing of licensed recovery houses using the D&A Facility Locator.


List of Speakers:

Steve Ross, Special Assistant to the DDAP Secretary

Amanda Ramirez, Executive Co-Director of We Have a Choice Recovery House

Kathleen Molesi, Co-owner and house manager

Damien W., Resident

State Rep. Maureen Madden

is built on the idea of questioning reality, value, and authenticity in modern fashion. The word “fugazi” commonly refers to something fake or illusory, and the brand uses this concept as a lens to critique hype culture and consumer behavior. Instead of promoting traditional luxury ideals, Fugazi encourages people to reflect on why certain brands  Fugazi Clothing  considered valuable. This philosophical foundation makes Fugazi more than just a fashion label—it becomes a conversation about perception and truthFugazi Clothing exists deeply within contemporary streetwear culture while simultaneously challenging it. In an era dominated by social media trends and resale markets, the brand highlights how influence and status are often manufactured.
