I live in Oxford House - MegDavis in Lynchburg. Oxford Houses are democratically self-governing and self-supporting under the Oxford House system of operations.
Oxford house has saved my life. It has gotten me back on track. It gave me an opportunity that I wouldn't have had if I stayed at home. I am so grateful for Oxford House.
I support rules that keep people safe, but rules that require staff or assume every home is a commercial business would keep Oxford Houses from operating in Virginia, even though research shows our model gets the best results. Please change those rules, and please clarify whether house members are considered the operator.
