What sober living costs in Texas, and how residents pay for it
Sober living in Texas typically runs around $185 a week. Members of an Oxford House split the real cost of running the home, so this house's share is its own — the residents are the only ones who can quote it. Median gross rent statewide in Texas is $1,403 a month, for context. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as Be Well Texas vouchers and Project HOMES. Funding of this kind runs through Texas Health and Human Services Commission.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, covered by the members' equal shares 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.
How recovery housing is regulated in Texas
There is no state licence for recovery residences in Texas. Homes that want certification apply to Texas Recovery Oriented Housing Network (TROHN), the state NARR affiliate. This home is chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by the state affiliate, so it will not normally be on the certified list. The state's list of certified residences is published here. Protection runs from the federal Fair Housing Act and Texas Fair Housing Law (Texas Property Code Section 301.021).
