What sober living costs in Delaware, and how residents pay for it
Sober living across Delaware averages roughly $185 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. Median gross rent statewide in Delaware is $1,401 a month, for context. Help with the share is available through state programmes including DSAMH Recovery Support Scholarship and State Rental Assistance Program. Funding of this kind runs through Delaware Health and Social Services, Division of Substance Abuse and Mental He.
How an Oxford House is run
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and abstinence-based by rule. New members are taken on by the current residents, 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. The state's NARR affiliate, First State Alliance of Recovery Residences (FSARR), certifies homes that choose to apply. Oxford Houses are chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by a state affiliate, so this home will not usually appear on a state certification list. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Delaware Fair Housing Law (6 Delaware Code Section 4603).
