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

In Delaware, a bed in sober living commonly runs about $185 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. Statewide, median gross rent in Delaware runs $1,401 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as DSAMH Recovery Support Scholarship and State Rental Assistance Program is the usual route. The agency behind it is Delaware Health and Social Services, Division of Substance Abuse and Mental He.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, financially self-supporting and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are chosen by the members themselves, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

Is sober living regulated in Delaware?

Delaware does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Voluntary standards are set by First State Alliance of Recovery Residences (FSARR), the state's NARR affiliate. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Delaware Fair Housing Law (6 Delaware Code Section 4603) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
