Actor Jeff Bridges talks Montana: Films brought him to state; loving it makes him stay part of year

Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

Bridges first met Gov. Bullock in March 2014 at a meeting organized by Bridges with several democratic governors to address childhood hunger. While severe hunger and malnutrition is rare in Montana, tens of thousands of low-income Montanans face food insecurity, including nearly 22 percent of children (nearly 48,000 kids).

Bridges is no well-meaning outsider: a 40-year resident and small-town denizen of Livingston, he is as Montana as unobstructed views, alpine lakes, and meandering cold-water rivers.
