Montana Office
The Foundation’s first office is located in Maureen and Mike Mansfield’s home state of Montana. The office was first established in Helena, but later moved to Missoula in 1986. It is now co-located with the Mansfield Center at the University of Montana in the Mansfield Library. The Montana office serves as the financial and compliance office of the foundation.
The Tokyo office was established in 1997 to assist the Foundation with its programs abroad. As a smaller office, it works directly with the Japan-based board members on Board programs and Foundation activities, and is particularly involved with the Fellowship Program.
Washington Office
After Congress created the Mansfield Fellowship Program in honor of Mike Mansfield’s commitment to public service, the D.C. office was established in 1999 to facilitate the program. While the Fellowship program remains a major focus of the foundation, the D.C. office also hosts other Asia-related programs, including other exchanges, policy dialogues, and research projects.
