Cost of recovery housing in Florida

Typical sober living in Florida costs around $205 a week. Members of an Oxford House split the real cost of running the home, so this house's share is its own — the residents are the only ones who can quote it. By way of comparison, Florida's median gross rent is $1,669 monthly. Florida Department of Children and Families is the state agency that oversees this funding.

How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, financially self-supporting and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are accepted by the current residents, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.

Recovery housing standards in Florida

Florida does not licence recovery residences as facilities. Florida Association of Recovery Residences (FARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. 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. The certified-residence register for Florida is online here. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Florida Fair Housing Law (Florida Statutes Section 760.23).
