What sober living costs in Kentucky, and how residents pay for it

Across Kentucky, sober living generally runs about $145 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. Statewide, median gross rent in Kentucky runs $967 a month. Cabinet for Health and Family Services, Dept. for Behavioral Health, Developme handles recovery-housing funding for the state.

How the Oxford House model works

Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are interviewed and admitted by the current residents, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in Kentucky

Kentucky has no licensing regime for recovery housing. Kentucky Recovery Housing Network (KRHN) runs the voluntary certification scheme as the state's NARR affiliate. 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. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Kentucky Fair Housing Law (Kentucky Revised Statutes Section 344.360).
