About Lincoln County Recovery First

Lincoln County Recovery First is a recovery housing operator based in Libby, Montana, serving Lincoln County in the state's far northwest corner.

A Locally Founded Recovery Housing Provider

The organization was founded in Libby in 2025 by someone who has been through addiction and recovery herself, and it operates on a small scale that matches the size of the community it serves. Local ownership means decisions about admissions and day-to-day operations are made by someone reachable in the same county.

Certification and Montana's Registry Requirement

Lincoln County Recovery First's housing is certified under Montana's voluntary framework and separately registered with the Department of Public Health and Human Services, satisfying the state's 2023 mandatory recovery residence law in addition to holding certification.

Serving Lincoln County's Addiction Service Desert

Lincoln County has less addiction treatment and recovery infrastructure than most of Montana, and an operator built specifically for that gap fills a role a larger, out-of-area organization is less likely to prioritize. Working alongside Lincoln County's drug court gives the organization a direct line to people who need housing support.

Reaching Lincoln County Recovery First

Contact goes directly to the organization in Libby. Worth asking: what support is currently available, how referrals from the drug court or other providers are handled, and what a first visit involves.
