Cost of recovery housing in North Carolina
The going rate for sober living in North Carolina is around $170 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. Median gross rent statewide in North Carolina is $1,228 a month, for context. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as County opioid-settlement Recovery Housing Support and NC Commerce CDBG Recovery Housing Program. 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 managed day to day by their residents, paid for by the members themselves and required to stay substance-free. New members are interviewed and admitted by the current residents, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in North Carolina
There is no state licence for recovery residences in North Carolina. Certification is voluntary and administered by North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR), the NARR affiliate for the state. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. The certified-residence register for North Carolina is online 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).
