What a bed costs in Washington, and what help exists
A sober living bed in Washington usually costs about $215 a week. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. By way of comparison, Washington's median gross rent is $1,760 monthly. Help with the share is available through state programmes including HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers. Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery handles recovery-housing funding for the state.
How the Oxford House model works, and how to apply
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and required to stay substance-free. New members are voted in by a house vote, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Certification and oversight in Washington
Washington does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Certification is voluntary and administered by Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), the NARR affiliate for the state. This home is chartered by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified by the state affiliate, so it will not normally be on the certified list. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Washington Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (Revised Code of Washington Section 49.60.222).
