Paying for sober living in Tennessee
In Tennessee, a bed in sober living commonly 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. For comparison, median gross rent across Tennessee is $1,189 a month. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher. That money is administered by Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, self-funding and required to stay substance-free. New members are voted in by those already in the home, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
Certification and oversight in Tennessee
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Tennessee. Homes that want certification apply to Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), the state NARR affiliate. 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).
