What a bed costs in Louisiana, and what help exists
Typical sober living in Louisiana costs around $155 a week. Oxford House works on an equal share of what the home actually costs, not a set rent, so treat that as the market rather than this address. Median gross rent in Louisiana, for comparison, 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. Funding of this kind runs through Louisiana Department of Health, Office of Behavioral Health.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, covered by the members' equal shares and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are taken on by the existing membership, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Louisiana
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Louisiana. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Louisiana Fair Housing Law (Louisiana Revised Statutes Section 51:2606).
