Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, self-funding and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are accepted by the members themselves, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.
Is sober living regulated in North Carolina?
North Carolina does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Voluntary certification runs through North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. The certified-residence list for North Carolina is published here. North Carolina Fair Housing Law (North Carolina General Statutes Section 41A-4) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
