It started with an email. Mark Jones wrote to Montana State University President Waded Cruzado asking how he and his wife, Robyn, could use their resources in partnership with the university to better the state's health care system. Three years later, on Tuesday afternoon, the Joneses, Cruzado and other MSU administrators and partners donned hard hats to ceremonially break ground on a new nursing education building at MSU. The new building will provide faculty and students with state-of-the-art facilities and allow for increased enrollment to...
Earlier this month, representatives from Missoula community organizations packed into a conference room at Partnership Health Center to coordinate solutions to a collective problem: How to help thousands of people removed from state Medicaid programs in the last year regain health care coverage as quickly as possible. The campaign, titled "Get Covered Again," is spearheaded by Cover Montana, a federally supported arm of the Montana Primary Care Association that helps Montanans find and access...

Manhattan Police Officers were not able to reach the cold and wet juveniles due to water conditions and requested Gallatin County Sheriff Search and Rescue (GCSSAR) respond to assist. GCSAR volunteers f... Full story

The MSPF purchased the private land with funds provided by a grant from Montana's Outdoor Legacy Foundation and the Fish and... Full story
Given the lack of precipitation from November through most of January in Montana, above normal precipitation was needed over the last couple of months. "February did provide well above normal precipitation to nearly all of Montana and those weather patterns continued into the first week of March across the state," said Eric Larson, USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Water Supply Specialist. What seemed to be the beginning of a potential recovery only tapered off in many basins....
It was a busy 24-hour stretch last week for the Three Forks Volunteer Fire Department as they responded to a working structure fire, gas leak, and outside fire.

Gov. Greg Gianforte announced last week that the state is deploying a small number of Montana National Guard troops to the nation's southern border, describing the action as an effort to help the state of Texas police cross-border drug trafficking in light of what he described as inaction by the federal government. According to the announcement, 10 Montana National Guardsmen have volunteered for active duty as part of Texas' Operation Lone Star. The Guardsmen are scheduled to arrive in Texas April 8 and return home May 12. In a statement,...

If it feels like GPS has been around forever, that's because it has. Well, at least the human brain-powered version. People have been making their way around the world—with and without maps—for ages. It is a true survival instinct. It has been just a few decades since humans outsourced their wayfinding to global navigation satellite systems. The United States only completed its global positioning system in 1993. Perhaps because superpowers don't want to rely on something outside their con... Full story
