Cost of recovery housing in Tennessee
Across Tennessee, sober living generally runs 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. For scale, renting privately in Tennessee has a median gross rent of $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. Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services administers that funding at state level.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, covered by the members' equal shares and abstinence-based by rule. New members are taken on by the current residents, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Recovery housing standards in Tennessee
Tennessee does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. Oxford Houses are chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by a state affiliate, so this home will not usually appear on a state certification list. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
