Chrysalis was founded in 1998 by two clinicians who dreamed of creating a residential treatment program that paralleled life at home. Over the past twenty-two years the school has grown while also maintaining the core principles of relational treatment. Today, Chrysalis is accredited by the National Independent Private Schools Association (NIPSA) and officially licensed and registered with the Montana Department of Health and Human Services. We are members of the National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs (NATSAP) and the Association for Experiential Education (AEE).
