Sober living costs and rent help in Missouri

Typical sober living in Missouri costs around $150 a week. Members of an Oxford House split the real cost of running the home, so this house's share is its own — the residents are the only ones who can quote it. For comparison, median gross rent across Missouri is $1,033 a month. SOR Recovery Housing per-bed payment and RSS Access Site 90-day rent vouchers are among the public routes that pay for recovery-housing beds here. Funding of this kind runs through Missouri Department of Mental Health, Division of Behavioral Health.

How the Oxford House model works

Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are approved by the members themselves, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

How recovery housing is regulated in Missouri

Missouri does not license this kind of housing. Missouri Coalition of Recovery Support Providers (MCRSP) runs the voluntary certification scheme as the state's NARR affiliate. 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. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Missouri Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Act) (Missouri Revised Statutes Section 213.040).
