Stepping Stones Behavioral Health Coed Sober House

About this Sober House

Stepping Stones Behavioral Health is a certified recovery residence in Missoula, Montana, in Missoula County, operated by Stepping Stones Behavioral Health Services, Inc. It is one of a small number of certified residences serving western Montana's largest city.

A Certified Recovery Residence in Missoula

Missoula is the seat of Missoula County and the service center for a wide stretch of western Montana, and a certified recovery residence in the city sits within reach of outpatient providers, the county courthouse and two area colleges without residents needing a car. Stepping Stones Behavioral Health Services, Inc. operates in the behavioral health field in Missoula, and this residence is part of that work.

What Recovery Residence Certification Establishes

Certification commits a recovery residence to a published code of ethics, disclosure of fees and house rules before move-in, and a complaint process a resident can pursue outside the house. Montana's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences is Recovery Access Montana, which maintains the state's certification directory and is the place to confirm a residence's current standing.

Recovery Housing in Missoula County

Missoula draws people into recovery housing from smaller towns across western Montana who need access to outpatient treatment, case management and courts that their home county does not provide at the same scale. A certified residence inside the city gives residents a documented standard to expect while they rebuild routine, work and sobriety in one place.

What to Ask Before Applying to This Missoula Sober House

Applications go directly to Stepping Stones Behavioral Health Services, Inc. The questions certification obliges an answer to are the ones worth asking first: what the fee structure covers, whether a house manager or staff member is on site, how bedrooms are assigned, and how a complaint is handled if it needs to go beyond the house itself.
