What sober living costs in Alabama, and how residents pay for it

Across Alabama, sober living generally runs about $150 a week. Members of an Oxford House split the real cost of running the home, so this house's share is its own — the residents are the only ones who can quote it. Median gross rent in Alabama sits at $1,007 a month. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as ADMH Recovery Housing Initiative and veterans SSVF. Alabama Department of Mental Health administers that funding at state level.

How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, self-funding and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are taken on by the current residents, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.

How recovery housing is regulated in Alabama

Alabama has no licensing regime for recovery housing. Voluntary certification runs through Alabama Alliance for Recovery Residences (AARR), the state's NARR affiliate. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. The certified-residence register for Alabama is online here. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Alabama Fair Housing Law (Code of Alabama Section 24-8-4).
