What sober living costs in Tennessee, and how residents pay for it

Expect sober living in Tennessee to run about $165 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. Median gross rent in Tennessee, for comparison, 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. Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services administers that funding at state level.

How an Oxford House is run

Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, financially self-supporting and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are approved by the current residents, 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. Voluntary certification runs through Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
