LifeHouse Women's Sober House

About this Sober House

LifeHouse is a women's sober living home in Victor, Montana, in Ravalli County. It is operated by The LifeGuard Group, a Montana nonprofit, and provides sober, drug-free housing for adult women working through recovery and rebuilding stability after exploitation.

A Women's Recovery Residence at Crooked Tree Ranch

LifeHouse sits on Crooked Tree Ranch, and residents live in a sober and drug-free household with staff on site around the clock. Every resident holds the right to a violence-free household and a personal bed, and the program will not force faith practice on anyone who has not chosen it for herself, even though the ranch itself is faith-affiliated.

A Three-Phase Recovery Program

LifeHouse moves residents through three phases. The first two weeks focus on stabilizing daily routines with a house manager and case manager close at hand. The middle phase adds individual therapy and a full health assessment. The final phase turns toward concrete goals: finishing school, starting a job, and preparing to live independently again.

Operated by a Certified Recovery Housing Provider

LifeHouse is operated by a certified operator, and The LifeGuard Group backs the house with a documented safety plan, background-checked staff, and a resident grievance process that runs outside the house itself. A contracted, licensed mental health professional handles therapy, and medical care is handled by a licensed provider outside the house.

Recovery Housing in the Bitterroot Valley

Victor sits in the Bitterroot Valley of western Montana, in Ravalli County, with Hamilton as the county seat a short drive south. The valley's small population means recovery housing options are limited, and a program built specifically around trauma and exploitation, like LifeHouse, fills a need that a general sober house in the same area does not address.
