Cost of recovery housing in New York

In New York, a bed in sober living commonly runs about $200 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. Statewide, median gross rent in New York runs $1,621 a month. For those who cannot pay, OASAS Permanent Supportive Housing brands and OTDA/DSS Public Assistance shelter allowance are among the state-funded routes used. New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports is the state agency that oversees this funding.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, covered by the members' equal shares and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are chosen by the existing membership, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

Recovery housing standards in New York

There is no state licence for recovery residences in New York. Certification is voluntary and administered by New York State Alliance of Recovery Residences (NYSARR), the NARR affiliate for the state. 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. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under New York Fair Housing Law (Human Rights Law) (New York Executive Law Section 296).
