What a bed costs in Wisconsin, and what help exists

A sober living bed in Wisconsin usually costs about $155 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. By way of comparison, Wisconsin's median gross rent is $1,087 monthly. For those who cannot pay, Recovery Voucher Grant Program and Recovery Housing for Transition-Aged Adults are among the state-funded routes used. Funding of this kind runs through Wisconsin Department of Health Services - Recovery Residence Registry.

How Oxford House membership works

Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, self-funding and required to stay substance-free. New members are voted in by the existing membership, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.

How recovery housing is regulated in Wisconsin

Wisconsin has no licensing regime for recovery housing. Voluntary certification runs through Wisconsin Association of Sober Housing (WASH), the state's NARR affiliate. 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. See the state certified-residence list for homes that carry it. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Wisconsin Open Housing Law (Wisconsin Statutes Section 106.50).
