Paying for sober living in Illinois

Sober living in Illinois typically runs around $170 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. For scale, renting privately in Illinois has a median gross rent of $1,274 a month. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as IDHS/SUPR Recovery Home contracts and CORS and WARM settlement peer-support grants. Illinois Department of Human Services, Division of Substance Use Prevention an is the state body to start with.

The Oxford House model and the resident interview

Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, covered by the members' equal shares and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are interviewed and admitted by a house vote, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in Illinois

Some recovery housing in Illinois needs a state licence; peer-run homes generally do not. The state's NARR affiliate, Illinois Association of Extended Care (IAEC), certifies homes that choose to apply. 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. The certified-residence register for Illinois is online here. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Illinois Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Act) (775 Illinois Compiled Statutes Section 5/3-102).
