Cost of recovery housing in Oregon
Across Oregon, sober living generally runs about $195 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. By way of comparison, Oregon's median gross rent is $1,525 monthly. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as Medicaid HRSN housing benefit and DOC/county reentry funds. That money is administered by Oregon Health Authority, Health Systems Division.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, covered by the members' equal shares and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are chosen by those already in the home, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Is sober living regulated in Oregon?
Oregon does not license this kind of housing. The state's NARR affiliate, Mental Health and Addiction Certification Board of Oregon (MHACBO), certifies homes that choose to apply. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. The certified-residence register for Oregon is online here. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Oregon Fair Housing Law (Oregon Revised Statutes Section 659A.421).
