Cost of recovery housing in Virginia
A sober living bed in Virginia usually costs 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. Against that, the median gross rent in Virginia is $1,579 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as OAA opioid-settlement grants and DBHDS/VARR indigent-bed grants is the usual route. Funding of this kind runs through Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, paid for by the members themselves and abstinence-based by rule. New members are interviewed and admitted by those already in the home, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
Recovery housing standards in Virginia
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Virginia. Voluntary standards are set by Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. The certified-residence list for Virginia is published here. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3).
