Sober living costs and rent help in Washington
A sober living bed in Washington usually costs about $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. Against that, the median gross rent in Washington is $1,760 a month. People who cannot pay a share up front commonly use programmes such as HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers. That money is administered by Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are resident-governed homes, funded by an equal share from each resident and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are approved by a house vote, so a listed opening is a reason to call rather than a bed held in anyone's name.
Recovery housing standards in Washington
No state licence is required to run a recovery residence in Washington. The state's NARR affiliate, Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), certifies homes that choose to apply. 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. Washington Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (Revised Code of Washington Section 49.60.222) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
