What sober living costs in North Carolina, and how residents pay for it
Typical sober living in North Carolina costs around $170 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. For scale, renting privately in North Carolina has a median gross rent of $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. North Carolina Dept. of Health and Human Services, Division of Mental Health, is where that funding sits.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, self-funding and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are voted in by the existing membership, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in North Carolina
Recovery residences are not state-licensed in North Carolina. North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. The state's list of certified residences is published here. 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).
