Hope Junction
Hope Junction is an independent non-profit organization connecting individuals with mental health resources using well established community resources to bridge and connect services to support those affected by mental health, substance abuse, addiction, criminal activity, and recidivism. We want to reach those who have otherwise seemed unreachable. We coordinate the provision of mental health services, case management, support, education, and outreach. We aim to bridge services to help so many that otherwise seem to fall through the cracks.
The target communities identified are largely Fort Peck Indian Reservation, Fort Belknap Indian Reservation, and all of their neighboring counties namely Sheridan, Daniels, Roosevelt, Valley, and Phillips counties. The stated purposes of the organization allow for use of funds across all Montana communities and considering the overt limitation of available resources, the first focus of Hope Junction is northeast Montana.
Connecting care at critical transitions.
Mission
Hope Junction connects people at critical transitions with behavioral health, addiction recovery, and practical support that helps them stabilize, access care, and move safely toward independence by funding care, medications, and resources.
Vision
A Montana where jail, crisis, poverty, or rural isolation do not become dead ends, but points of connection to care, recovery, and stability.
Values: BRIDGES
B — Belonging
We believe every person deserves dignity, human connection, and a place in the
community, regardless of incarceration history, addiction, mental illness,
poverty, or crisis.
R — Recovery
We support practical steps toward stabilization, healing, accountability, and long-
term wellness.
I — Integrity
We use charitable funds responsibly, transparently, and in alignment with donor
intent, grant restrictions, and nonprofit purpose.
D — Dignity
We treat people as more than their worst moment, diagnosis, charge, relapse, or
circumstance.
G — Guided Transitions
We help bridge vulnerable gaps between jail, crisis, treatment, medication access,
Medicaid activation, employment, family, and community life.
E — Equitable Access
We work to reduce barriers to behavioral health care, addiction recovery support,
medications, and practical resources for people with limited ability to pay or
limited access to services.
S — Stewardship
We maintain clear records, responsible spending practices, and board oversight so
that Hope Junction’s resources are used wisely and in service of its mission.
