Sober living costs and rent help in Virginia
Across Virginia, sober living generally runs about $200 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. Median gross rent in Virginia sits at $1,579 a month. State funding such as OAA opioid-settlement grants and DBHDS/VARR indigent-bed grants exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services is the state body to start with.
The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, paid for by the members themselves and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are voted in by the existing membership, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
How recovery housing is regulated in Virginia
Virginia does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Homes that want certification apply to Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), 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. A directory of certified residences is maintained for the state. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3) protect residents here.
