Cost of recovery housing in Nebraska

The going rate for sober living in Nebraska is around $155 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. For comparison, median gross rent across Nebraska is $1,072 a month. Justice reentry per-day vouchers and Region 6 RRAP & TAYRAP are among the public routes that pay for recovery-housing beds here. Nebraska Dept. of Health & Human Services, Division of Behavioral Health is where that funding sits.

How Oxford House membership works

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, financially self-supporting and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are taken on by the people already living there, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.

Recovery housing standards in Nebraska

No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Nebraska. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Nebraska Fair Housing Law (Nebraska Revised Statutes Section 20-318).
