Paying for sober living in Illinois

A sober living bed in Illinois usually costs about $170 a week.

By way of comparison, Illinois's median gross rent is $1,274 monthly.

How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply

Oxford Houses are self-governing households, covered by the members' equal shares and required to stay substance-free. New members are interviewed and admitted by the existing membership, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

Recovery housing standards in Illinois

Illinois licenses some recovery housing but not the peer-run kind in most cases. Illinois Association of Extended Care (IAEC), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. A directory of certified residences is maintained for the state. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Illinois Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Act) (775 Illinois Compiled Statutes Section 5/3-102).
