What sober living costs in Virginia, and how residents pay for it
The going rate for sober living in Virginia is around $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, for comparison, is $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.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, financially self-supporting and required to stay substance-free. New members are taken on by the people already living there, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
Recovery housing standards in Virginia
There is no state licence for recovery residences in Virginia. Voluntary standards are set by Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), the state's NARR affiliate. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. You can browse the certified residences in Virginia. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3).
