Cost of recovery housing in Virginia
Across Virginia, sober living generally runs about $200 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. Statewide, median gross rent in Virginia runs $1,579 a month. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as OAA opioid-settlement grants and DBHDS/VARR indigent-bed grants. The agency behind it is Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are self-governing households, financially self-supporting and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are accepted by the current residents, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Recovery housing standards 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. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Both the federal Fair Housing Act and Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3) protect residents here.
