What sober living costs in Louisiana, and how residents pay for it
In Louisiana, a bed in sober living commonly runs about $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. State funding such as Permanent Supportive Housing and SSVF and HUD-VASH exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. The agency behind it is Louisiana Department of Health, Office of Behavioral Health.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, paid for by the members themselves and abstinence-based by rule. New members are interviewed and admitted by the current residents, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
How recovery housing is regulated in Louisiana
Louisiana has no licensing regime for recovery housing. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Louisiana Fair Housing Law (Louisiana Revised Statutes Section 51:2606).
