About Step By Step – Allentown, Pennsylvania

The Lehigh Valley Office of Step By Step in Allentown, Pennsylvania offers behavioral health and intellectual disability support to over 600 adults each year.

They offer both in-home and community support, psychiatric rehabilitation, and supported independent living. Their residential services include community homes, inpatient residential, and intermediate care facilities.

While Step by Step doesn’t specifically offer substance use treatment programs, their wider focus on any mental health disorders includes substance use disorder.

The homelike residences offered by Step by Step range from apartment style to communal living spaces. They have several options to choose from.

Fairweather Lodge, in Allentown, is a recovery focused home. Up to 8 employed adults with mental health disorders work and live together. They manage their home and their lives independently. Residence here can be permanent if needed.

You’ll meet regularly with the other residents to support one another, make decisions about the shared home, and develop skills. A lodge coordinator and mental health recovery specialist are support persons that can advise you. They will facilitate skill building and provide wellness and recovery resources. But, the responsibility to live independently together is up to you.

Their long-term structured residence is an alternative to psychiatric hospitalization. It provides intensive, inpatient treatment.

Another option is a managed residence. In this case, you’ll live in an apartment unit. Another unit in that apartment will belong to a peer specialist who’ll be your residence manager. This allows you to have autonomy and independence but have nearby support.
