Creating a more just and inclusive society.

EmpowerMT creates a more just and inclusive society by developing youth and adult leaders who work to end mistreatment, correct systemic inequities, and strengthen communities across Montana and beyond.

EmpowerMT’s youth and schools programming focuses on healing centered youth led change rooted in belonging, meaning, well-being and purpose. This pathway of leadership development offers opportunities to explore identity, understand the impact of systemic oppression, and develop skills and confidence to create meaningful positive change.

EmpowerMT has worked with hundreds of grassroots movements, nonprofit organizations, businesses, tribal nations and governmental agencies since 1998.

Each year EmpowerMT reaches thousands of individuals through our community- based workshops and events, including our annual Diversity Day Celebration, Missoula's MLK Day Celebration, and more. EmpowerMT is also a resource for communities to help problem solve controversial issues, and strengthen collaborations to build strong and resilient communities.
