Description
About the Human Resource Council
The Human Resource Council (HRC) is a non-profit corporation established as a result of the Economic Opportunity Act of 1964. We are one of ten Human Resource Development Councils who partner together to serve the entire state of Montana in twelve districts. We are District Eleven which is made up of Mineral, Missoula and Ravalli Counties. Each year an average of 8,360 low-income individuals in these three counties are positively impacted by our efforts.
HRC is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors drawn one-third each from the private, public and low-income sectors of the three county community. The diversity of its membership ensures that a variety of perspectives are applied toward finding solutions to the problems facing the people we serve and for whom we advocate.
We partner with other Human Resource Development Councils, community service organizations, and public interest groups to focus available local, state, private and federal resources to the needs of the low-income community. We are serious about making the entire community more responsive to the needs of those Montanans who face poverty daily.
We work to identify and expand resources to provide opportunities in housing, health, education, training and employment. Since 1965 we have addressed and help meet the unmet needs of people in these three counties and the State. We have adjusted our focus as changing needs come to the forefront.
