About Southwest Chemical Dependency – Livingston
A popular gateway to Yellowstone National Park, Livingston, Montana is home to Southwest Chemical Dependency. Since 1977, they’ve strived to help adults overcome addiction. What started as a small program in an apartment has blossomed into a nonprofit corporation, serving Beaverhead, Madison, Park, and Meagher Counties. You’ll benefit from comprehensive outpatient care to start or continue your recovery journey.
With outpatient care, you can live at home and tend to daily responsibilities, like work, school, and family. Their program prioritizes self help groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous in recovery. You’ll also participate in group and individual therapy, peer support, and random drug screenings. These approaches can help you foster spiritual growth and build essential coping skills.
What stands out most to me is their DUI services. They are state approved Prime For Life Course instructors, providing the Montana Assessment, Course, Treatment (ACT). If you’re facing a DUI charge, you can participate in this track to complete the requirements to reinstate your license.
Another feature that caught my eye was their recovery home. Addiction experts recommend remaining in care to promote long term recovery once completing an initial program. They provide a safe, low intensity residential program to keep you on track in your journey. You can access clinical services and social support. That way you can gain the tools for independent living and sustaining recovery.
I also think it’s nice that they emphasize spiritual growth. Twelve step programs encourage you to find strength through faith in a higher power. You’ll benefit from hope, a sense of purpose, and guidance to succeed in your journey.
