Paying for sober living in Virginia
The going rate for sober living in Virginia is around $200 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. Median gross rent statewide in Virginia is $1,579 a month, for context. For those who cannot pay, OAA opioid-settlement grants and DBHDS/VARR indigent-bed grants are among the state-funded routes used. That money is administered by Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, financially self-supporting and abstinence-based by rule. New members are approved by the members themselves, so an opening is not the same thing as an acceptance.
Recovery housing standards in Virginia
Recovery residences are not state-licensed in Virginia. Certification is voluntary and administered by Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), the NARR affiliate for the state. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. The state's list of certified residences is published here. Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
