Northwestern Montana alternative therapy wilderness boarding school closes

Helena National Forest
Forest Service Northern Region (PD)

Last week a 16-bed wilderness therapeutic boarding school in northwest Montana, where boys were once made to sleep outside without proper clothing, closed. Montana Public Radio’s Aaron Bolton spoke with Lee Newspapers’ State News Bureau Reporter Seaborn Larson, who covered the private school’s closure.

Aaron joined the MTPR team in 2019. He reports on all things in northwest Montana and statewide health care.
