Owning & Operating recovery housing involves areas including Recovery, Housing & Business.  Recovery Housing has specific federal, state and local laws that you must follow.   

FAIR HOUSING LAWS

There are Federal, State and Local Fair Housing Laws to protect individuals from housing discrimination. Understanding Fair Housing should be one of the first topics you learn about when opening a recovery residence.  Protections apply when someone is trying to open a recovery residence in a community, as well as when you are operating a recovery residence. There are many local organizations that provide free training and online resources.  

OHIO LANDLORD/TENANT LAWS

Ohio’s Landlord/Tenant Laws do apply to recovery housing.  Where this tends to be the most misunderstood is during the time someone is asked to leave due to not complying with the rules.  It is important to understand their rights as a tenant and your responsibilities as a housing provider.

CITY REQUIREMENTS

Every city will have their own requirements that landlords will need to follow. Common requirements include rental registration, occupancy permits, safety such as smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors & lead paint disclosures. It is always best to contact the city to be sure you are in compliance.

MINIMUM QUALITY STANDARDS

In addition to meeting the federal, state and local laws, it is recommended that recovery housing providers meet minimum quality standards.  The national organization NARR has developed recommended standards.

BUSINESS PLANNING

It is important to have a good business plan. There are organizations that offer free workshops and information for individuals who are interested in opening a business.

INSURANCE

The minimum insurance recommended is general liability, however that may not always be enough.  Be sure to share with the agent that you are operating recovery housing.
