Alderson House Sober House

About this Sober House

Alderson House is a certified sober living home in Billings, Montana, in Yellowstone County, operated by Alternatives, Inc.

A Residential Program Operated by Alternatives, Inc.

Alderson House is one of two residential programs Alternatives, Inc. runs in Billings, alongside the men's Alpha House. Both operate as part of the organization's community corrections and reentry work, which has served Yellowstone County since 1980.

Registered and Certified

Alderson House is registered with Montana's Department of Public Health and Human Services and certified through the National Sober Living Association. Registration has been mandatory for every recovery residence in the state since 2023, and certification adds a published code of ethics, written fees and rules, and a documented relapse and discharge policy on top of that baseline.

Recovery Housing in Yellowstone County

Billings is the largest city in Montana and the seat of Yellowstone County, giving Alderson House residents access to the state's densest concentration of outpatient providers, employers and court services. Alternatives, Inc.'s decades of standing in the community mean a resident referred here is entering a program the local courts and treatment providers already know.

What to Ask Before Moving Into Alderson House

Applications go through Alternatives, Inc. directly. Since the organization runs a structured, supervision-heavy model at Alpha House, it is worth confirming what level of structure applies at Alderson House specifically, along with what the fee covers, whether a house manager lives on site, and how a relapse is handled.
