What a bed costs in North Carolina, and what help exists
Typical sober living in North Carolina costs around $170 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. Median gross rent in North Carolina, for comparison, is $1,228 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through County opioid-settlement Recovery Housing Support and NC Commerce CDBG Recovery Housing Program or similar state funding. That money is administered by North Carolina Dept. of Health and Human Services, Division of Mental Health,.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are interviewed and admitted by the current residents, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
Recovery housing standards in North Carolina
Recovery housing in North Carolina operates without a state licence.
