Cost of recovery housing in Tennessee
Sober living across Tennessee averages roughly $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. For comparison, median gross rent across Tennessee is $1,189 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher is the usual route. Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services is the state agency that oversees this funding.
The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, paid for by the members themselves and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are chosen by the members themselves, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Tennessee
There is no state licence for recovery residences in Tennessee. 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. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
