Sober living costs and rent help in Tennessee
Across Tennessee, sober living generally runs about $165 a week. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. Statewide, median gross rent in Tennessee runs $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 agency that oversees this funding.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are chosen by the current residents, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
Is sober living regulated in Tennessee?
Tennessee does not license this kind of housing. Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR) runs the voluntary certification scheme as the state's NARR affiliate. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. Residents are protected by the federal Fair Housing Act and by Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601).
