What a bed costs in Tennessee, and what help exists

Expect sober living in Tennessee to run about $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. Against that, the median gross rent in Tennessee is $1,189 a month. Help with the share is available through state programmes including TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher. The agency behind it is Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.

How an Oxford House is run

Oxford Houses are self-governing households, financially self-supporting and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are interviewed and admitted by the existing membership, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.

Is sober living regulated in Tennessee?

Recovery housing in Tennessee operates without a state licence. The state's NARR affiliate, Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), certifies homes that choose to apply. This home is chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by the state affiliate, so it will not normally be on the certified list. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
