How the Oxford House model works
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, paid for by the members themselves and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are accepted by the people already living there, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
How recovery housing is regulated in North Carolina
There is no state licence for recovery residences in North Carolina. North Carolina Association of Recovery Residences (NCARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. North Carolina publishes its certified-residence directory. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and North Carolina Fair Housing Law (North Carolina General Statutes Section 41A-4).
