Paying for sober living in Louisiana
Sober living across Louisiana averages roughly $155 a week. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. Against that, the median gross rent in Louisiana is $1,064 a month. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as Permanent Supportive Housing and SSVF and HUD-VASH. The agency behind it is Louisiana Department of Health, Office of Behavioral Health.
The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, covered by the members' equal shares and required to stay substance-free. New members are approved by a house vote, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery housing standards in Louisiana
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Louisiana. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Louisiana Fair Housing Law (Louisiana Revised Statutes Section 51:2606).
