Sober living costs and rent help in South Carolina

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. Against that, the median gross rent in South Carolina is $1,180 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through Recovery Housing Program and Young Adult Recovery Housing Assistance or similar state funding. South Carolina Dept. of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services / Dept. of Behav administers that funding at state level.

How Oxford House membership works

Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, covered by the members' equal shares and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are chosen by the current residents, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.

Recovery housing standards in South Carolina

South Carolina does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. South Carolina Alliance for Recovery Residences (SCARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. South Carolina Fair Housing Law (South Carolina Code of Laws Section 31-21-40) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
