What a bed costs in Missouri, and what help exists
Sober living across Missouri averages roughly $150 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. For comparison, median gross rent across Missouri is $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. Missouri Department of Mental Health, Division of Behavioral Health administers that funding at state level.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, financially self-supporting and abstinence-based by rule. New members are chosen by those already in the home, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
Recovery housing standards in Missouri
Missouri does not licence recovery residences as facilities. The state's NARR affiliate, Missouri Coalition of Recovery Support Providers (MCRSP), certifies homes that choose to apply. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. The certified-residence register for Missouri is online here. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Missouri Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Act) (Missouri Revised Statutes Section 213.040).
