Sober living costs and rent help in Virginia

Across Virginia, sober living generally runs about $200 a week. An equal share of the home's actual costs is what Oxford House members pay, so the number above describes the market rather than this house. For comparison, median gross rent across 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. Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services is where that funding sits.

How an Oxford House is run

Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, self-funding and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are voted in by the current residents, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.

Recovery housing standards in Virginia

Recovery residences are not state-licensed in Virginia. The state's NARR affiliate, Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), certifies homes that choose to apply. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. Residents are protected by the federal Fair Housing Act and by Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3).
