Sober living costs and rent help in Washington
Across Washington, sober living generally runs about $215 a week. Oxford House works on an equal share of what the home actually costs, not a set rent, so treat that as the market rather than this address. Median gross rent in Washington sits at $1,760 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as HCA Short-Term SUD Housing Vouchers and DOC Reentry Housing Vouchers is the usual route. Washington State Health Care Authority - Recovery Residence Program / Recovery is the state agency that oversees this funding.
How an Oxford House is run
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, financially self-supporting and alcohol- and drug-free by charter. New members are accepted by the members themselves, so a reported vacancy is a starting point, not a reservation.
How recovery housing is regulated in Washington
Recovery housing in Washington operates without a state licence. Voluntary certification runs through Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences (WAQRR), the state's NARR affiliate. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Washington Fair Housing Law (Law Against Discrimination) (Revised Code of Washington Section 49.60.222).
