Paying for sober living in Ohio

Across Ohio, sober living generally runs about $150 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 Ohio sits at $1,034 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as HUD Recovery Housing Program and State Opioid & Stimulant Response is the usual route. Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services administers that funding at state level.

How the Oxford House model works

Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, self-funding and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are voted in by the existing membership, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

Certification and oversight in Ohio

Ohio does not license this kind of housing. Ohio Recovery Housing (ORH) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. A directory of certified residences is maintained for the state. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Ohio Fair Housing Law (Ohio Revised Code Section 4112.02).
