Cost of recovery housing in South Carolina

Across South Carolina, sober living generally runs about $165 a week. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. Against that, the median gross rent in South Carolina is $1,180 a month. Help with the share is available through state programmes including Recovery Housing Program and Young Adult Recovery Housing Assistance. The agency behind it is South Carolina Dept. of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services / Dept. of Behav.

How the Oxford House model works

Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are chosen by those already in the home, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in South Carolina

South Carolina has no licensing regime for recovery housing. South Carolina Alliance for Recovery Residences (SCARR) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. 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.
