About Winds of Change Addiction & Mental Health Center

Winds of Change Addiction and Mental Health Center is a substance use treatment program in Missoula, Montana providing outpatient and intensive outpatient services for youth and adults.

I found that this nonprofit center offers mental health therapy, case management, peer support and licensed group home living. Their strength-based philosophy empowers clients through personalized recovery paths and multi-member care teams.

Addiction Treatment Programs at Winds of Change

Clients can access services through the intensive outpatient program (IOP) which includes group sessions, counseling, relapse prevention and coping skill development. General outpatient services provide individualized counseling, recovery focused groups and case management for those needing flexible scheduling.

I like that treatment here incorporates evidence-based approaches with medication management overseen by psychiatric providers. Youth ages five to 18 receive specialized programming for serious emotional disturbances and substance use while adults can transition into one of five licensed group homes supporting independent living.
