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

In Colorado, a bed in sober living commonly runs about $215 a week. Oxford Houses work differently: members divide the home's real costs between them rather than paying a fixed rent, so ask the house what its share comes to. Statewide, median gross rent in Colorado runs $1,761 a month. For those who cannot pay, CDOC Community Re-Entry short-term rent and Medicaid HRSN Supportive Housing are among the state-funded routes used. Funding of this kind runs through Colorado Behavioral Health Administration.

How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply

Oxford Houses are self-governing households, covered by the members' equal shares and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are interviewed and admitted by a house vote, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

Certification and oversight in Colorado

Recovery residences are not state-licensed in Colorado. Colorado Agency for Recovery Residences (CARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. 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. Colorado publishes its certified-residence directory. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and Colorado Fair Housing Law (Colorado Revised Statutes Section 24-34-502) protect residents here.
