Adams County Commissioner Marty Qually reported today that after a year of fundraising and planning the county is ready to start renovations on the Mercy House Recovery Center in Gettysburg.
The Mercy House will be the first substance abuse recovery center in Adams County. The facility will have public space for clients and residents to receive information, counseling, and other addiction services.

The facility will also contain a recovery house for seven adult men in recovery, where they will receive peer counseling, affordable housing, career assistance, and other services designed to help them break their addictions.
Residents can show their support for the project by attending the groundbreaking ceremony on January 21 at 11:00 a.m. at 45 W. High St., Gettysburg.
If you are planning to attend, please RSVP to lmwoodward@adamscounty.us or by calling 717-337-9820.
