2019 Montana Residential-Program Reporting

In 2019, the Missoulian reported on ownership and licensing histories at several Montana residential programs. The article stated that Building Bridges' private alternative adolescent residential or outdoor program application listed Steve, Jill, and Kurt Fairbank as owners, and it discussed Steve Fairbank's earlier addiction-counselor discipline in connection with a misdemeanor sexual-assault case involving a 17-year-old girl in the program.

The same report said Montana's program-licensing board granted Building Bridges full licensure in 2010 and that the program remained licensed at the time of publication.
