What sober living costs in New York, and how residents pay for it

Sober living in New York typically runs around $200 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. Statewide, median gross rent in New York runs $1,621 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through OASAS Permanent Supportive Housing brands and OTDA/DSS Public Assistance shelter allowance or similar state funding. Funding of this kind runs through New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports.

How the Oxford House model works

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are accepted by the members themselves, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

Certification and oversight in New York

There is no state licence for recovery residences in New York. Voluntary standards are set by New York State Alliance of Recovery Residences (NYSARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from New York Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Law) (New York Executive Law Section 296).
