Sober living costs and rent help in Virginia
Typical sober living in Virginia costs around $200 a week. Oxford House works on an equal share of what the home actually costs, not a set rent, so treat that as the market rather than this address. Against that, the median gross rent in Virginia 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 agency that oversees this funding.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are accepted 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
Virginia does not license this kind of housing. The state's NARR affiliate, Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), certifies homes that choose to apply. Certification by the state affiliate and an Oxford House charter are different things; this home holds the latter. The certified-residence list for Virginia is published here. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3).
