How the Oxford House model works
Every Oxford House is expected to operate according to the same broad principles while retaining autonomy over local household decisions. Residents run the home democratically, support it financially, share responsibilities, and maintain abstinence from alcohol and drugs. The result is a community-based sober living setting in which peers have direct responsibility for the stability and operation of the residence.
Contacting the house and requesting an interview
The Oxford House interview is conducted through the individual residence, not through a centralized guarantee of placement. Existing members evaluate applicants and decide who joins the household. Confirm the listed interview schedule, then ask about the equal expense share, move-in funds, house responsibilities, recovery-related expectations, and how quickly a decision is typically communicated.
