What a bed costs in Washington, and what help exists
Sober living across Washington averages roughly $215 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. Median gross rent in Washington sits at $1,760 a month. Help with the share is available through state programmes including HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers. Funding of this kind runs through Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery.
How an Oxford House is run
Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and required to stay substance-free. New members are taken on by those already in the home, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
How recovery housing is regulated in Washington
Washington does not licence recovery residences as facilities. The state's NARR affiliate, Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), certifies homes that choose to apply. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. 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).
