Individual houses are self-supporting, with recovering individuals paying the cost of housing and rehabilitative support themselves. Funding from the central organization supports travel expenses, legal rights protection, and administrative costs to ensure affordable housing remains accessible. Oxford House Placement Services, a non-profit referral agency, maintains a toll-free hotline to report towns and phone numbers of houses with vacancies. J. D.
