Paying for sober living in Tennessee
Across Tennessee, sober living generally runs about $165 a week. Oxford Houses work differently: members divide the home's real costs between them rather than paying a fixed rent, so ask the house what its share comes to. Against that, the median gross rent in Tennessee is $1,189 a month. For those who cannot pay, TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher are among the state-funded routes used. The agency behind it is Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are interviewed and admitted by the existing membership, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
How recovery housing is regulated in Tennessee
Tennessee does not license this kind of housing. Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
