Cost of recovery housing in Washington
The going rate for sober living in Washington is around $215 a week. Oxford Houses work differently: members divide the home's real costs between them rather than paying a fixed rent, so ask the house what its share comes to. By way of comparison, Washington's median gross rent is $1,760 monthly. For those who cannot pay, HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers are among the state-funded routes used. Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery administers that funding at state level.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, self-funding and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are taken on 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?
Recovery residences are not state-licensed in Washington. Homes that want certification apply to Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), the state NARR affiliate. 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. 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).
