Oxford House Shelton is a democratically run, self-supporting and drug free home. Oxford House Shelton is an all men sober 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 men of Oxford House Shelton pay all the expenses related to the maintenance of the house. This facility has a maximum capacity of eight residents. This recovery house is part of a larger nationwide nonprofit organization.
