Sober living costs and rent help in New Jersey
Across New Jersey, sober living generally runs about $210 a week. Oxford Houses work differently: members divide the home's real costs between them rather than paying a fixed rent, so ask the house what its share comes to. Median gross rent in New Jersey, for comparison, is $1,720 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through federal Recovery Housing Program and NJ FamilyCare Housing Supports or similar state funding. New Jersey Dept. of Community Affairs, Division of Codes and Standards, Bureau handles recovery-housing funding for the state.
How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, self-funding and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are voted in by the existing membership, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in New Jersey
New Jersey requires recovery residences to hold a state licence. This home is chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by the state affiliate, so it will not normally be on the certified list. A directory of certified residences is maintained for the state. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and New Jersey Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (New Jersey Revised Statutes Section 10:5-12).
