Paying for sober living in Virginia
Sober living in Virginia typically runs around $200 a week. Members of an Oxford House split the real cost of running the home, so this house's share is its own — the residents are the only ones who can quote it. By way of comparison, Virginia's median gross rent is $1,579 monthly. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as OAA opioid-settlement grants and DBHDS/VARR indigent-bed grants. Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services is the state agency that oversees this funding.
How an Oxford House is run
Oxford Houses are run by their members rather than by staff, paid for by the members themselves and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are voted in by the people already living there, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Virginia
Recovery housing in Virginia operates without a state licence. 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. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3).
