What sober living costs in South Carolina, and how residents pay for it

The going rate for sober living in South Carolina is around $165 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. Median gross rent statewide in South Carolina is $1,180 a month, for context. Recovery Housing Program and Young Adult Recovery Housing Assistance are among the public routes that pay for recovery-housing beds here. South Carolina Dept. of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services / Dept. of Behav handles recovery-housing funding for the state.

How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply

Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and required to stay substance-free. New members are approved by those already in the home, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in South Carolina

South Carolina has no licensing regime for recovery housing. South Carolina Alliance for Recovery Residences (SCARR) runs the voluntary certification scheme as the state's NARR affiliate. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and South Carolina Fair Housing Law (South Carolina Code of Laws Section 31-21-40) protect residents here.
