The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are accepted by the people already living there, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery housing standards in Kansas
Kansas has no licensing regime for recovery housing. 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. Kansas Fair Housing Law (Kansas Statutes Section 44-1016) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
