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

Typical sober living in New Jersey costs around $210 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. By way of comparison, New Jersey's median gross rent is $1,720 monthly. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as federal Recovery Housing Program and NJ FamilyCare Housing Supports. New Jersey Dept. of Community Affairs, Division of Codes and Standards, Bureau is where that funding sits.

How an Oxford House is run

Oxford Houses are self-governing households, financially self-supporting and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are accepted by the members themselves, 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. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. The certified-residence list for New Jersey is published here. New Jersey Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (New Jersey Revised Statutes Section 10:5-12) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
