Oxford House Ventura is a democratically run, self-supporting and drug free home. This is an all female house. Every Oxford house represents an effective and low cost method of preventing relapse. A representative of each House in the Chapter meets with the others on a monthly basis, to exchange information, to seek resolution of problems in a particular House, and to express that Chapter's vote on larger issues.
The women of Oxford House Ventura pay all the expenses related to the maintenance of the house. There are eight beds in this recovery house. Oxford House Ventura is part of a nonprofit corporation umbrella organization which provides the network connecting all Oxford Houses and allocates resources to duplicate the Oxford House concept where needs arise.
