Oxford House Emberwood is a sober living home for women in South Sioux City, Nebraska, part of the Oxford House network of self-run, self-supported recovery homes. The house has 9 beds.
Oxford Houses are rented single-family homes run democratically by the residents. There is no paid staff and no set length of stay: residents share rent and household expenses, hold weekly house meetings and elect officers, and agree to stay sober. Any resident who drinks or uses drugs is asked to leave.
Oxford Houses do not provide treatment, detox or counseling. Many residents move in after detox or a residential program, or while attending outpatient treatment or 12-step meetings.
To apply, contact the house and arrange an interview with current residents, who vote on new members. Openings change week to week, so check current vacancies on the Oxford House vacancy list before you call.
