90 Years Leading Montana – Celebrating the past, inspiring the future!

Due to the extremely high transmission rates of the COVID-19 Delta variant in Lewis and Clark County and across the state, the League Board of Directors has voted to hold the 2021 League Conference virtually through our conference app, Whova October 5-8. While we are very disappointed to not see all of you in person in October, the safety of our members and their communities is everyone’s top priority.

Third Annual MiniMuni Conference

For over 200 years government entities have used debt to fund public infrastructure such as government buildings, water distribution systems, schools, police stations, and many other projects that require significant capital investment. Before issuing debt, a government must consider many factors including the most current information on federal legislation and regulations. Attend virtually to hear first-hand from key leaders in Washington, DC, and participate in dialogue with issuer peers.

MMIA is excited to announce that through our joint efforts with MACOP and MLEA, we have secured a federal VALOR grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance to bring the Law Enforcement Agency and Officer Resilience Training Program to Montana!

This 4-day program is designed to equip officers with empirically validated skills of resilience and to provide them with the training resources to bring the program back to their agency. The goal is to build more resilient officers and agencies by enhancing knowledge and skills in resiliency to assist officers in dealing with the many day-to-day challenges and stressors they face as well as those larger critical incidents.  There is no cost to attend the training, which includes breakfast and lunch each day. Lodging and transportation costs are the responsibility of each individual agency.
