Cost of recovery housing in Missouri

Expect sober living in Missouri to run about $150 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 scale, renting privately in Missouri has a median gross rent of $1,033 a month. For those who cannot pay, SOR Recovery Housing per-bed payment and RSS Access Site 90-day rent vouchers are among the state-funded routes used. That money is administered by Missouri Department of Mental Health, Division of Behavioral Health.

How Oxford House membership works

Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, covered by the members' equal shares and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are voted in by a house vote, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.

Certification and oversight in Missouri

Missouri does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Certification is voluntary and administered by Missouri Coalition of Recovery Support Providers (MCRSP), the NARR affiliate for the state. 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. The certified-residence list for Missouri is published here. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Missouri Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Act) (Missouri Revised Statutes Section 213.040).
