Paying for sober living in Washington
Across Washington, sober living generally runs about $215 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. Median gross rent in Washington, for comparison, 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 body to start with.
The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, covered by the members' equal shares and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are approved by the current residents, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
Is sober living regulated in Washington?
Recovery housing in Washington operates without a state licence. The state's NARR affiliate, Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), certifies homes that choose to apply. 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. 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).
