Paying for sober living in Tennessee

The going rate for sober living in Tennessee is around $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. Median gross rent in Tennessee, for comparison, 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. Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services is the state body to start with.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, funded by an equal share from each resident and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are interviewed and admitted by those already in the home, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

Recovery residence standards and oversight in Tennessee

Recovery housing in Tennessee operates without a state licence. Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
