The Core of Impact Montana

VISION

Montana's service members, veterans, first responders and families THRIVING, during and after service. 

Mission

Help service members, veterans, first responders and their families define their purpose, connect with health and community solutions, and strive for what they value.

Values

Respect-We honor those who serve and who have served community, state, and nation; and assist getting those who have served back into service [to their community].

Service-We serve without distinction all (including family members) who serve or have served community, state, and nation through a hand-up.

Innovation-We leverage unique and innovative methods to promote optimal health and wellness.

Growth-Mindset-We foster the attitude of becoming better tomorrow than today.

Community-We recognize that it takes a tribe for our mission to succeed.

Synergy-We function as a part of the solution by working through our strengths hand-in-hand with other community solutions.


Investing in Montana.

Impact Montana was created to enhance existing support systems for service members, veterans, first responders, and their families by offering innovative, integrative solutions that empower individuals to thrive.

Our “Thrive Factors” are rooted in both lived service and professional experience. They provide a framework for growth—individually and within units such as families or peer groups—fostering resilience, connection, and purpose.

We recognize that lasting change requires a strong peer support network and a well-informed, engaged community. The challenges faced by those who serve—or have served—are complex, and no single organization can carry this responsibility alone. That’s why collaboration, compassion, and community action are at the heart of everything we do.
