Alpha House

What Alpha House does

Alpha House Inc. is a Pittsburgh-based non-profit organization that has provided community-focused substance use disorder treatment since 1971. It operates a licensed thirty-bed inpatient facility delivering ASAM 3.5 highest-intensity residential care, supplemented by an outpatient program. The organization serves individuals seeking long-term recovery from substance use disorders, including those with co-occurring mental health issues, trauma histories, and forensic backgrounds, and also provides resources to family members and loved ones.

The treatment model is built on a 'whole person' cognitive behavioral therapeutic approach delivered within a person-centered, home-like community environment. Core offerings include the Residential Program and Outpatient Program, alongside integrated services such as individual and group therapy, therapeutic outings, educational and occupational support, peer-focused support (delivered by certified recovery specialists with lived experience), legal support, and daily life skills training. The 'community as healing agent' concept is central: residents support one another, participate in facility operations (cooking, cleaning), and pursue individualized recovery goals that address trauma, family issues, education, vocational resources, and independent living skills. HIPAA-compliance protocols govern communications and record handling.

Alpha House generates revenue through two principal streams: treatment services (likely reimbursed via insurance, Medicaid, or private pay, with inpatient care disclosed at $153.00 per day) and donations/charitable contributions (with online tiered giving from $10 to $153). Go-to-market is community-led and referral-based: admissions follow referrals and assessments, supported by a website, mailing list, and direct contact channels. Geographic reach is concentrated in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, and the organization is governed by a Board of Directors and led by Executive Director Tonisha Wilson, MSW.
