Paying for sober living in Florida

A sober living bed in Florida usually costs about $205 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. Against that, the median gross rent in Florida is $1,669 a month. Funding of this kind runs through Florida Department of Children and Families.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, covered by the members' equal shares and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are taken on by the people already living there, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.

Is sober living regulated in Florida?

Florida does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Florida Association of Recovery Residences (FARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. You can browse the certified residences in Florida. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Florida Fair Housing Law (Florida Statutes Section 760.23).
