Project Description

Blackfeet Community College (BCC), a two-year community college located on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation east of Glacier National Park, secured NMTC financing for a new $7.5 million Health Science Education Building with the help of First Interstate Bank and through the nonprofit Montana & Idaho Community Development Corporation (now MoFi). The new 9,000-square-foot building, which opened in 2018, houses education, nursing and health training programs. The expansion positions the college to begin offering four-year degree programs in Education and Nursing as early as 2020.
