What sober living costs in North Carolina, and how residents pay for it
Across North Carolina, sober living generally runs about $170 a week. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. Median gross rent in North Carolina, for comparison, is $1,228 a month. For those who cannot pay, County opioid-settlement Recovery Housing Support and NC Commerce CDBG Recovery Housing Program are among the state-funded routes used. North Carolina Dept. of Health and Human Services, Division of Mental Health, is the state agency that oversees this funding.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are taken on by the people already living there, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in North Carolina
North Carolina does not licence recovery residences as facilities. Voluntary standards are set by North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. You can browse the certified residences in North Carolina. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under North Carolina Fair Housing Law (North Carolina General Statutes Section 41A-4).
