Beacon House The Beacon House Association of San Pedro is a long-term substance abuse recovery center You can learn more at www.thebeaconhouse.org.

The Beacon House Association of San Pedro is a state-certified, residential substance abuse recovery program for men with a sincere desire to achieve long-lasting abstinence from drugs and alcohol. As residents of the Beacon House, the men are provided with food, shelter, counseling, peer group support, educational opportunities and career training through social enterprise programs, including a Thrift Shop. This allows the men to develop the life, career and social skills they need to build a foundation in recovery, while preparing them for a strong reintegration into the job market and a bright future when they return to their family, home and community. Recently named one of the best addiction treatment centers in the United States by Newsweek Magazine, men from 39 states across the country have received treatment at Beacon House. The organization has grown over the past 50 years to encompass a full city block in San Pedro, California, adjacent to the Port of Los Angeles, including six residential facilities with the capacity to house 110 residents, as well as a kitchen/dining facility. With the support of our donors and the local community, we have helped thousands of men get a second chance at life and regain their place as responsible, productive members of society.

What an incredible night! Our 2026 Heart of Recovery Gala was a beautiful reminder of just how much love and support surrounds the men of Beacon House.

The evening was filled with inspiring stories, heartfelt moments, and an outpouring of generosity. We were especially proud to honor Marcia and Mike Schoettle with our Angel Award in recognition of their years of love and service to Beacon House.

For our men who volunteered at the event, it was an unforgettable night. Seeing so many people come together to celebrate their recovery reminded them that they're part of something much bigger than themselves.

To everyone who attended, donated, or supported us from afar, thank you. Your generosity allows us to continue helping men rebuild their lives, reconnect with their families, and discover a future filled with hope and purpose.

This past weekend, a group of Beacon House men joined thousands at the Skechers Pier to Pier Friendship Walk in Manhattan Beach, raising funds for children with special needs, public education, and college scholarships.

In active addiction, many of our men felt isolated and without purpose. Events like this help them reconnect with the world around them and find purpose in helping others.

Recently, a group of our men received a certificate of appreciation for helping out at the annual Alma Park Picnic.

At Beacon House, we teach our men that service to others is an important part of living a sober, fulfilling life. So, our guys are happy to lend a hand where they can.

Thank you, Alma Park Neighbors, for taking the time to acknowledge our men and the steps they're taking to give back to our community.

Eleven years ago, Ramon’s life was a mess. He couldn’t stop drinking and using substances, and after a su***de attempt and psychiatric hold, he reached out to Beacon House.

Once here, he got a sponsor, started helping others, and gradually learned to let go of his need to always be right. After two and a half years at Beacon House, he moved out and began building a new life.

Today, that life is better than he ever imagined. He started working in homeless services, has a great relationship with his family, and remains active in Alcoholics Anonymous, where he continues to help others. Above all, his faith is central to his life, and he credits God for making it all possible.

One of the ways our men grow is through self-examination. Each night, they take time to reflect on how their day went. They look at the things they did well and the areas where they struggled—and they write it down.

The next day, they share those reflections with someone and get feedback on where they can continue to grow. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about looking at yourself honestly, learning from your mistakes, and trying to do a little better tomorrow.

A big thank you to Sadhna Singh from Farmers & Merchants Bank for visiting Beacon House and leading a financial literacy training for our staff.

This training (and the sessions to follow) will better equip our staff to help our men navigate important financial decisions, from building credit and managing debt to saving and planning for the future, ultimately helping them build the financial skills they need to successfully reintegrate into life.

SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) conducted a national survey to look at how widespread substance use disorder (SUD) has become in recent years. In 2024, about 48.4 million Americans ages 12 and older were found to be struggling with an SUD. That includes problems related to both alcohol and drugs.

What’s especially concerning is how few people are getting help. Only about 12% of people with an SUD received treatment. These numbers show that addiction affects millions of people and that access to effective treatment and long-term recovery support is becoming more important every day.
