Paying for sober living in Washington
Typical sober living in Washington costs around $215 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. For scale, renting privately in Washington has a median gross rent of $1,760 a month. State funding such as HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers exists for residents who cannot cover it themselves. Funding of this kind runs through Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are voted in by the members themselves, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.
Recovery housing standards in Washington
Recovery residences are not state-licensed in Washington. Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), the state's NARR affiliate, offers voluntary certification. An Oxford House holds a charter from Oxford House, Inc. instead of state affiliate certification, which is why it is generally absent from state certified-home lists. Fair housing protection comes from federal law and from Washington Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (Revised Code of Washington Section 49.60.222).
