Welcome to Alternative Youth Care. AYC is located in north west Montana. We have been helping young men for over a decade to overcome their addiction and reclaim their lives using a 12-step Hazelden-model approach. We are a long term, transitional living half-way house that specializes in helping young men to develop a desire to pursue life without drugs or alcohol. Our Treatment Program is intended to pick up where inpatient treatment left off. Our aspiration is long-term abstinence and a new lifestyle of sobriety. We believe that tthe proper life skills, within a structured facility, is the answer for recovery.
