The HRDC | Serving Bozeman, Livingston, and Southwest Montana

OUR COLLECTIVE IMPACT: to growth and stability.

We offer broad-based initiatives to reduce barriers to self-sufficiency, from addressing basic needs like hunger and homelessness to providing comprehensive tools to promote and sustain independence. Our wide range of services include emergency housing, food and energy assistance, childcare, senior services, financial planning, and more. Our organization serves over 12,000 individuals each year. As the cost of living rises, this number grows.

Yet, many don’t realize that our customers don’t fit the stereotype of people in need. The truth is, anyone can fall on hard times. Anyone can lose their job, home, and stability. We know that every single one of us benefits from a more connected and supported community.

Here for our communities.

Our goal is to move forward with positive change and to create solutions that last by identifying and addressing the diverse needs of Southwest Montana.
