How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, self-funding and abstinence-based by rule. New members are accepted by the existing membership, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Is sober living regulated in Washington?
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Washington. Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. Oxford Houses are chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by a state affiliate, so this home will not usually appear on a state certification list. Residents are covered by the Fair Housing Act federally and by Washington Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (Revised Code of Washington Section 49.60.222).
