What sober living costs in Washington, and how residents pay for it
Across Washington, sober living generally runs about $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 comparison, median gross rent across Washington is $1,760 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers or similar state funding. Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery is the state agency that oversees this funding.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, paid for by the members themselves and abstinence-based by rule. New members are chosen by a house vote, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.
Recovery housing standards in Washington
Recovery housing in Washington operates without a state licence. Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. Washington Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (Revised Code of Washington Section 49.60.222) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
