Woodhaven Recovery is a real place where real recovery happens. Teen boys go to school, share meals, attend groups, work with clinical support, spend time outside, build friendships, and slowly begin to feel at home in their own lives again.
A Haven for Hope and Healing
Woodhaven Recovery is located on a beautiful mountain property in the wooded hills and open spaces of Northeastern Pennsylvania.
The setting is quiet and intentional. Away from familiar triggers and daily distractions, boys have room to slow down, settle in, and do the work recovery requires. The natural surroundings provide space for reflection, connection, and growth.
A Recovery Community Designed for Teen Boys
Adolescents in recovery need more than sobriety. They need structure and accountability, but they also need to keep learning, stay connected to their families, discover who they are without substances, and begin preparing for adulthood.
Woodhaven Recovery was built around these needs. Every part of the program exists because adolescents need it, not because it was adapted from a model designed for adults.
A Path Toward Independence and Adulthood
At Woodhaven Recovery, boys are supported through a continuum of residential environments designed for different stages of recovery, growth, and independence. Each home provides structure, accountability, and community while helping young people develop life skills, responsibility, and readiness for what comes next.
A CONTINUUM OF HOMES FOR EVERY STAGE OF RECOVERY
Woodhaven Recovery offers a residential continuum designed to grow with each boy as he progresses in recovery, builds confidence, and takes on more responsibility.

Comprehensive Support for Teen Boys in Recovery
Woodhaven Recovery brings together the essential supports adolescents need to build lasting recovery. Our program integrates Recovery Principles, Woodhaven Prep, Clinical Engagement, Recreation, Family Program, and Strategic Planning so boys are supported academically, emotionally, and socially as they begin building a healthier future.
-
Recovery Principles
Recovery at Woodhaven is practiced in daily life. Through 12-step principles, a specially designed adolescent curriculum, recovery groups, individual coaching, fellowship, and accountability, boys begin building the habits and relationships that support lasting sobriety.
-
Woodhaven Prep
Woodhaven Prep keeps boys connected to school through individualized instruction, high school credit coordination, and an engaging classroom environment that supports both learning and recovery. Students are encouraged to build confidence, stay on track for graduation, and take meaningful steps toward college, career, and future goals.
-
Clinical Engagement
Each boy’s therapeutic care is connected to his daily life at Woodhaven. Through coordination with therapists, psychiatry, families, and staff, boys with substance use disorder and co-occurring mental health challenges are supported with greater consistency and care.
-
Recreation Program
Recovery should include joy. Through outdoor adventure, sports, fitness, and shared experiences, boys build friendships, develop confidence, and discover that a meaningful life in recovery can also be fun.
-
Family Program
Addiction affects the whole family. Our Family Program supports parents through weekly virtual groups, monthly Family Days, education, and facilitated conversations. Families are given space to learn, reflect, reconnect, and begin finding their way forward together.
-
Strategic Planning
Strategic Planning helps boys prepare for life beyond treatment through life skills, college and career exploration, growing independence, responsibility, and future-focused goals. Each plan is shaped around the next right steps for that young person.
The Heart of Woodhaven
The heart of Woodhaven is found in the everyday moments that help boys feel known, supported, and cared for. A shared meal. A conversation at the table. A staff member who notices when something is off before a boy says a word. These moments are not incidental to recovery. They are part of it.
Recovery happens through structure and accountability, but it also happens through belonging. Woodhaven is built to provide both.
