Sober living costs and rent help in North Carolina
Expect sober living in North Carolina to run about $170 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. Median gross rent in North Carolina, for comparison, is $1,228 a month. 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. That money is administered by North Carolina Dept. of Health and Human Services, Division of Mental Health,.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are self-governing households, funded by an equal share from each resident and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are chosen by the people already living there, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Is sober living regulated in North Carolina?
Recovery housing in North Carolina operates without a state licence. 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. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and North Carolina Fair Housing Law (North Carolina General Statutes Section 41A-4) protect residents here.
