What a bed costs in Colorado, and what help exists
Typical sober living in Colorado costs around $215 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. Against that, the median gross rent in Colorado is $1,761 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as CDOC Community Re-Entry short-term rent and Medicaid HRSN Supportive Housing is the usual route. That money is administered by Colorado Behavioral Health Administration.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, funded by an equal share from each resident and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are voted in by the existing membership, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Colorado
Recovery housing in Colorado operates without a state licence. The state's NARR affiliate, Colorado Agency for Recovery Residences (CARR), certifies homes that choose to apply. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. The state's list of certified residences is published here. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Colorado Fair Housing Law (Colorado Revised Statutes Section 24-34-502).
