What sober living costs in Tennessee, and how residents pay for it
A sober living bed in Tennessee usually costs about $165 a week. An equal share of the home's actual costs is what Oxford House members pay, so the number above describes the market rather than this house. By way of comparison, Tennessee's median gross rent is $1,189 monthly. 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 is where that funding sits.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are accepted by the people already living there, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Tennessee
Tennessee does not license this kind of housing. The state's NARR affiliate, Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), certifies homes that choose to apply. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
