Hope and Refuge Housing Sober House

About this Sober House

Hope and Refuge Housing is a certified sober house in Butte, Montana, in Silver Bow County, in southwest Montana. The recovery residence holds Level 2 certification from Recovery Access Montana and provides shared housing to people rebuilding their lives after addiction, incarceration, foster care and other displacement.

A Sober House Serving Several Populations in Butte

Hope and Refuge Housing describes its mission broadly: quality shared housing for disabled veterans, people transitioning out of incarceration, young adults aging out of foster care, adults with special needs, and others working toward stable, substance-free living. That range is wider than a typical single-population sober house, and it reflects a model built around housing instability generally, not addiction recovery alone.

What Level 2 Certification Establishes

Recovery Access Montana grades certified residences on a four-level scale, and Level 2 describes monitored housing: peer-managed structure with regular oversight, sitting between the lighter Level 1 peer-run model and the higher-supervision Level 3 and Level 4 tiers. Certification itself commits the house to a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules, and an outside complaint process, all of which a resident or family can verify independently of anything the house says about itself.

A Substance-Free Recovery Residence in Butte

Residents live free from alcohol and drug use with peer support and connections to outside services that promote sustained recovery. That structure suits someone who needs stable housing and accountability more than clinical supervision, and it draws on Butte's existing base of outpatient providers and community services for anything beyond what the house itself provides.

Recovery Housing in Silver Bow County

Butte is the seat of Silver Bow County and the largest city in southwest Montana, giving residents of Hope and Refuge Housing access to courts, outpatient treatment and social services without leaving the county. For veterans, people leaving incarceration or young adults aging out of foster care, that concentration of services in one place removes one more obstacle from an already difficult transition.
