Paying for sober living in Texas

Typical sober living in Texas costs around $185 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 scale, renting privately in Texas has a median gross rent of $1,403 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through Be Well Texas vouchers and Project HOMES or similar state funding. Funding of this kind runs through Texas Health and Human Services Commission.

How the Oxford House model works

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, financially self-supporting and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are approved by those already in the home, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.

Certification and oversight in Texas

Recovery housing in Texas operates without a state licence. Voluntary certification runs through Texas Recovery Oriented Housing Network (TROHN), the state's NARR affiliate. 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. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Texas Fair Housing Law (Texas Property Code Section 301.021).
