What a bed costs in Kansas, and what help exists
Sober living across Kansas averages roughly $155 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. Median gross rent in Kansas, for comparison, is $1,060 a month. That money is administered by Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services, Behavioral Health Service.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, financially self-supporting and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are taken on by the current residents, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Certification and oversight in Kansas
There is no state licence for recovery residences in Kansas. This home is chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by the state affiliate, so it will not normally be on the certified list. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Kansas Fair Housing Law (Kansas Statutes Section 44-1016).
