Money Follows the Person: Local Resource Guides for North Dakota Communities

Starting fresh in a new community can be overwhelming, especially when mental health, housing, or basic needs come into play. North Dakota’s Money Follows the Person (MFP) program created a series of regional pocket guides to help individuals and families quickly connect with vital services. From Bismarck to Williston, these guides highlight everything from crisis hotlines and behavioral health programs to housing assistance, food pantries, employment services, and transportation options.

Whether you are seeking a safe place to live, treatment for substance use, or help navigating health insurance, these guides make it easier to find trusted local resources. They are designed for people transitioning into independent living or establishing residency in a new community, and they support caregivers, case managers, and community partners who want to connect residents with reliable assistance.

By gathering these resources in one place, North Dakota communities are strengthening the safety net and ensuring that individuals can focus on stability, wellness, and growth. Explore the guides to see how your community is working to welcome and support every resident.
