Montana is home to some of the most spectacular natural scenery in the country. With its varied terrain of mountains, forests, and prairies, this state is often a popular destination for tourists. But Montana’s natural landscape also provides ample opportunity for drug traffickers and marijuana growers to hide and distribute their substances undetected. Rates of drug use and addiction in the state are therefore high, particularly when it comes to methamphetamine, heroin, cocaine, and marijuana.

Fortunately, there is a range of substance abuse treatment centers throughout Montana. These facilities offer inpatient and outpatient services that provide individuals an opportunity to get to the root of addiction and recover in a safe environment.
