Oxford House North City is a democratically run, self-supporting and drug free home. This is an all female house. Oxford Houses are a concept in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction. 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 North City pay all the expenses related to the maintenance of the house. There are 10 beds in this recovery house. Oxford House North City 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.
