Maternal and child health services

The Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration awarded the State of Montana Department of Health and Human Services $5.890 million on October 1, 2025, under the Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant to the States (CFDA 93.994) to support systems of care for mothers, children, and families, particularly vulnerable populations without adequate access to health care.

The award runs through September 30, 2027, with performance in Montana. The Montana DPHHS, operating through its Business and Financial Services Division, serves as the prime recipient and passes funding to sub-recipients across the state. The source does not specify what services or products the prime recipient or sub-recipients deliver with these funds beyond the program's general purpose of improving maternal and child health system coordination.

The Montana DPHHS sub-awarded funding to six entities: County of Lewis & Clark (three separate sub-awards), County of Flathead, Yellowstone City County Health Department (doing business as Riverstone Health), the City-County of Butte–Silver Bow, and County of Cascade. The source identifies these as Maternal and Child Health Block Grant (MCHBG) sub-awards but does not itemize the funding amounts or specify the services each sub-recipient delivers. County of Cascade is identified as a child recipient; the others are identified as parent recipients.
