Our Partners
Building an Inclusive Montana—Together
EmpowerMT collaborates with schools, organizations, businesses, and funders to build a more just and inclusive Montana. These partners make it possible for us to train youth leaders, support educators, and host community-driven events across the state.
Thank you to the individuals and institutions who make this work possible.
Youth & School Partners
We work alongside schools and youth-serving organizations to foster student leadership, support GSAs, and create inclusive learning environments. These partnerships are the foundation of our youth empowerment work.
