Welcome to the Missoula Indian Center, we are a 501 © (3) organization and one of 34 Urban Indian Health Programs (UIHP) located throughout the United States. Our major funding source comes from Indian Health Services. UIHP’s are varied in size and services provided. You can check out the types of services and the locations of the other UIHP’s at the “National Council of Urban Indian Health” web site at www.ncuih.org or at the Indian Health Service website http://www.ihs.gov/FacilitiesServices/areaOffices/billings/. MIC is an outreach and referral program that serves Urban Native Americans who live off Reservation. MIC’s long-term goal is to become a one stop comprehensive facility that offers a variety of services and programs such as routine medical and dental services, diabetes care, youth and elders programs, social services and enhanced chemical dependency services. Please check out our program services and/or visit us at our physical location at Building # 33 at Fort. Missoula. If you are new to the Missoula Community, we welcome you and hope you find the time to stop by and check us out. If you are already familiar with our facility and currently utilize our programs, we thank you for your patronage and for the opportunity to serve you.
My sincerest best wishes to everyone!
