Cost of recovery housing in North Carolina
Expect sober living in North Carolina to run about $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 comparison, median gross rent across North Carolina is $1,228 a month. State funding such as County opioid-settlement Recovery Housing Support and NC Commerce CDBG Recovery Housing Program exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. 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 alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are approved by those already in the home, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
How recovery housing is regulated in North Carolina
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in North Carolina. North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR) runs the voluntary certification scheme as the state's NARR affiliate. 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. Certified homes in North Carolina are listed here. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and North Carolina Fair Housing Law (North Carolina General Statutes Section 41A-4).
