What a bed costs in New Jersey, and what help exists

Expect sober living in New Jersey to run about $210 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. By way of comparison, New Jersey's median gross rent is $1,720 monthly. Residents short of the first payment often go through federal Recovery Housing Program and NJ FamilyCare Housing Supports or similar state funding. The agency behind it is New Jersey Dept. of Community Affairs, Division of Codes and Standards, Bureau.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are self-governing households, financially self-supporting and required to stay substance-free. New members are interviewed and admitted by the people already living there, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
