What a bed costs in Virginia, and what help exists
The going rate for sober living in Virginia is around $200 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. Median gross rent statewide in Virginia is $1,579 a month, for context. State funding such as OAA opioid-settlement grants and DBHDS/VARR indigent-bed grants exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. That money is administered by Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services.
The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, covered by the members' equal shares and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are approved by the people already living there, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.
How recovery housing is regulated in Virginia
Recovery housing in Virginia operates without a state licence. Homes that want certification apply to Virginia Association of Recovery Residences (VARR), the state NARR affiliate. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. The state's list of certified residences is published here. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Virginia Fair Housing Law (Code of Virginia Section 36-96.3).
