Our Leadership & Structure

Board of Directors

The MCHF & WHC Board of Directors is our governing body. Directors are elected to serve a term of three years, by their peers at the Annual Business Meeting. 


Board of Trustees

The MCHF district trustees are Montanans who have volunteered, and are approved by the MCHF Board of Directors, to help in the nomination and induction endeavors of the organization.

Contact the MCHF Field Office if you are interested in serving as a trustee.
