MCC helps young people develop vital competencies and discover their capacity to lead in their lives and their communities. In 2025, expenses supported three delivery models: 1) young adult crew-based experiences; 2) individual placement models for young adults; and 3)youth corps opportunities for Montana teens. In the young adult programs, members ages 17 and up completed an AmeriCorps term of service of three to nine months. They served on a four to six-person crew or individually in intern or fellow positions. For youth ages 14-18, MCC offered service expeditions of various lengths during the summer, as well as full-summer positions as part of Corps-to-Career Youth Corps crews with federal agency partners. MCC also supported two Piikuni Lands Corps crews and school-based programs in coordination with partners on the Blackfeet Tribal Nation. Through meaningful service projects, corps members cultivated service values and a vigorous work ethic, learned practical job skills, developed as effective leaders and crew members, practiced responsible land stewardship, and made lasting contributions to our communities and environment. MCC conducted over 315 community and conservation service projects in 2025. Projects met community and public lands needs in Montana and surrounding states in the Northern Rockies and Great Plains regions. Projects involved a variety of conservation work including trails building and maintenance, invasive species mitigation, wildfire rehabilitation and fuels reduction, historic restoration, biological monitoring, habitat enhancement, fencing, watershed restoration, and community service. Significant accomplishments in 2025 included improvements to 1,525 miles of recreational trails that enhanced safety and access to public lands, restoration of 8,816 acres including 4,236 acres treated for invasive and noxious weeds, planting 17,568 trees, and repairing or installing 115 miles of fencing to reduce wildlife mortality and improve habitat management. A youth participant reflected: I did MCC and it was amazing. I loved the structure, the work we do, the people we meet, and the overall experience. I learned so much. 1623240 514363 The Big Sky Watershed Corps (BSWC) is a partnership between Montana ConservationCorps, Montana Association of Conservation Districts, and Montana WatershedCoordination Council. BSWC activates community-based solutions for watershed health and protection. BSWC AmeriCorps members serve with local watershed-related groupsthroughout the state of Montana where they increase the capacity of host site organizations to lead community based, citizen-led watershed stewardship. Home-grown solutions to local watershed issues, on the ground watershed education and outreach, volunteer training, stream restoration projects and water monitoring initiatives make a measurable difference in local conservation efforts. BSWC AmeriCorps members gain practical, professional experience in watershed stewardship while developing skills for project leadership, collaborative management, volunteer engagement, and the role of citizens in leading change in their communities. 12111543 true true false true false false false false false false true false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 43 0 true 442 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 15 15 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X X WENDY WIGERT 4065874475 301 N WILLSON AVENUE BOZEMAN MT 59715 jonathan mckinney President & CEO 40.00 0.00 X 161368 0 25064 wendy wigert vp fin and op 40.00 0.00 X 132748 0 17209 MARY COCHENOUR BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JOY EARLS BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 GARRICK HARMEL BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 COURTNEY NAUMANN BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MIKE KENNEDY Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 PAGE DABNEY Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 ERIC LEGVOLD BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 VIRGINIA MCQUEEN LANEY BOARD MEMEBR 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARY ERICKSON board member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Scott Holton Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 LIEF PETERSON board member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 WHITNEY TILT Chairman 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 HEIDI MILLER VICE CHAIR 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 DAVID VAP BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JEFF MOW BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 294116 42273 2 false true false 0 5803694 968721 6772415 OTHER PROGRAM REVENUE 900099 514363 514363 PROGRAM FEES 110000 5833363 5833363 6347726 156587 156587 0 0 0 568364 568364 568364 568364 0 0 0 MEMBER HOUSING FEES 900099 36464 36464 36464 13881556 6952554 156587 0 0 0 0 336389 145 326457 9787 0 8113902 7493476 566305 54121 93631 65939 26247 1445 1041946 952288 85723 3935 943820 872253 66814 4753 0 0 16500 16500 0 0 0 0 1238 710 528 30920 23790 2836 4294 102724 27218 73801 1705 0 284510 258043 26467 393162 377244 10478 5440 0 0 3 3 0 6729 6729 81607 13365 68242 VEHICLE OPERATIONS 1380320 1379490 811 19 CONTRACT LABOR 182636 144149 10887 27600 PROJECT AND SAFETY SUPPLIES 175579 175579 TRAINING 137171 130794 5985 392 226423 190328 22903 13192 13549210 12111543 1310984 126683 0 5899347 6353513 390422 185906 89896 158310 0 0 0 0 41264 28727 56471 45611 4014 10860 0 0 0 2251982 3004871 94463 97822 8771388 9840009 650566 588235 2265172 3063778 2915738 3652013 X 5371203 5630741 484447 557255 5855650 6187996 8771388 9840009 332346 X false true X true true true X 4231382 4872291 5226836 7023131 6772415 28126055 0 0 4231382 4872291 5226836 7023131 6772415 28126055 61370 28064685 199 678 8465 63542 156587 229471 0 39500 36464 75964 28431490 0.98710 0.98720 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false 2249 2249 13546961 13549210 827461 206865 false 623111 598617 702409 827461 2751598 4127397 427 427 3002 2249 6105 155778 149654 175602 206865 687899 1031849 25074 14214 10860 31397 31397 10860 FINANCE LEASE LIABILITY - VEHICLE 2846046 OPERATING LEASE LIABILITY - OFFICE SPACE 217732 3063778 13881556 13881556 13881556 13549210 13549210 13549210 X X false false false false false false false false false jonathan mckinney President & CEO 161368 8068 16996 186432 Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b MCC Utilizes the services of an accounting firm to complete the Form 990.
