Paying for sober living in Delaware

The going rate for sober living in Delaware is around $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. Delaware Health and Social Services, Division of Substance Abuse and Mental He is where that funding sits.

How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply

Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are chosen by the people already living there, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in Delaware

Delaware has no licensing regime for recovery housing. Certification is voluntary and administered by First State Alliance of Recovery Residences (FSARR), the NARR affiliate for the state. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. The certified-residence register for Delaware is online here. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Delaware Fair Housing Law (6 Delaware Code Section 4603).
