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. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. Statewide, median gross rent in Delaware runs $1,401 a month. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as 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 run by their members rather than by staff, self-funding and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are accepted by a house vote, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

Is sober living regulated in Delaware?

Recovery housing in Delaware operates without a state licence. Certification is voluntary and administered by First State Alliance of Recovery Residences (FSARR), the NARR affiliate for the state. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. The certified-residence list for Delaware is published here. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and Delaware Fair Housing Law (6 Delaware Code Section 4603) protect residents here.
