Sober living costs and rent help in Louisiana
The going rate for sober living in Louisiana is around $155 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. Median gross rent in Louisiana sits at $1,064 a month. Help with the share is available through state programmes including Permanent Supportive Housing and SSVF and HUD-VASH. Louisiana Department of Health, Office of Behavioral Health is where that funding sits.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, self-funding and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are voted in by those already in the home, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
Is sober living regulated in Louisiana?
Louisiana does not license this kind of housing. 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. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Louisiana Fair Housing Law (Louisiana Revised Statutes Section 51:2606).
