Paying for sober living in Alabama
Sober living in Alabama typically runs around $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 statewide in Alabama is $1,007 a month, for context. State funding such as ADMH Recovery Housing Initiative and veterans SSVF exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. Alabama Department of Mental Health administers that funding at state level.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, paid for by the members themselves and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are taken on by those already in the home, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Alabama
Alabama does not license this kind of housing. Homes that want certification apply to Alabama Alliance for Recovery Residences (AARR), the state NARR affiliate. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Alabama Fair Housing Law (Code of Alabama Section 24-8-4).
