BILLINGS - The ribbon was cut Tuesday as Rimrock expanded their Community Mental Health Services to a larger and more convenient location at 1601 Lewis Avenue, Suite 101.

In addition to more capacity for in person services, Rimrock is also expanding capacity in telehealth through its CONNECT program.

Our model is to address whole person wellness and we believe this new location allows us to better serve this mission,â Rimrock CEO Lenette Kosovich said.
