Cost of recovery housing in Tennessee
Sober living across Tennessee averages roughly $165 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. Against that, the median gross rent in Tennessee is $1,189 a month. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher. Funding of this kind runs through Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, paid for by the members themselves and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are taken on by a house vote, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Tennessee
Tennessee has no licensing regime for recovery housing. Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
