Oxford House is a concept in recovery<br />
from drug and alcohol addiction. In its<br />
simplest form, an Oxford House is a<br />
democratically run, self-supporting and<br />
drug-free home. The number of residents<br />
in a House ranges from six to fifteen.<br />
The publicly supported, nonprofit<br />
501(c)(3) corporation is the national<br />
umbrella organization which provides a<br />
network connecting all Oxford Houses<br />
in the U.S.<br />
Residents of Oxford Houses, in recovery<br />
from alcohol and drug addiction,<br />
pay rent and share expenses in<br />
a democratically run group home.<br />
There are more than 20 Oxford<br />
Houses in the State of <strong>Delaware</strong>.<br />
