What a bed costs in Tennessee, and what help exists

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. Against that, the median gross rent in Tennessee is $1,189 a month. State funding such as TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services is the state body to start with.

The Oxford House model and the resident interview

Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are approved by those already in the home, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.

Recovery housing standards in Tennessee

Tennessee does not licence recovery residences as 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. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601) protect residents here.
