What a bed costs in Mississippi, and what help exists

The going rate for sober living in Mississippi is around $145 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 statewide in Mississippi is $954 a month, for context. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as HUD CoC Homeless Prevention & Rapid Re-Housing. Mississippi Department of Mental Health, Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Services is where that funding sits.

How an Oxford House is run

Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, paid for by the members themselves and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are accepted by a house vote, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in Mississippi

Mississippi does not licence recovery residences as facilities. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Mississippi Fair Housing Law (narrow - Home Corp. only) (Mississippi Code Section 43-33-723).
