Cost of recovery housing in North Carolina
A sober living bed in North Carolina usually costs about $170 a week. An equal share of the home's actual costs is what Oxford House members pay, so the number above describes the market rather than this house. Statewide, median gross rent in North Carolina runs $1,228 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as County opioid-settlement Recovery Housing Support and NC Commerce CDBG Recovery Housing Program is the usual route. 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, financially self-supporting and required to stay substance-free. New members are approved by the existing membership, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Recovery housing standards in North Carolina
North Carolina has no licensing regime for recovery housing. North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR) runs the voluntary certification scheme as the state's NARR affiliate. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. A directory of certified residences is maintained for the state. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and North Carolina Fair Housing Law (North Carolina General Statutes Section 41A-4).
