What a bed costs in Louisiana, and what help exists
Typical sober living in Louisiana costs around $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. For comparison, median gross rent across Louisiana is $1,064 a month. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as Permanent Supportive Housing and SSVF and HUD-VASH. Funding of this kind runs through Louisiana Department of Health, Office of Behavioral Health.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, self-funding and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are interviewed and admitted by the members themselves, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
How recovery housing is regulated in Louisiana
There is no state licence for recovery residences in Louisiana. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Louisiana Fair Housing Law (Louisiana Revised Statutes Section 51:2606).
