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

A sober living bed in Vermont usually costs about $170 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. By way of comparison, Vermont's median gross rent is $1,234 monthly. Residents short of the first payment often go through national scholarships or similar state funding. That money is administered by Vermont Department of Health, Division of Substance Use Programs.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are voted in by the people already living there, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

How recovery housing is regulated in Vermont

Vermont does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Voluntary standards are set by Vermont Alliance for Recovery Residences (VTARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. Certified homes in Vermont are listed here. Residents are protected by the federal Fair Housing Act and by Vermont Fair Housing Law (9 Vermont Statutes Section 4503).
