Bernadette Caron-Taylor,
Independent Living Specialist, Kalispell
Hello! Greetings from Kalispell. My name is Bernadette Caron-Taylor, and I started working as an Independent Living Specialist at Summit’s Kalispell office in July, 2020. I have been back in Montana for 19 years and am very happy to be joining the team at Summit IL. My husband, David, and I enjoy the summers here, and we like to get out on the water as much as possible. We also enjoying going to Mexico in the wintertime for a couple weeks to visit my family. I love to garden, quilt, cook/bake, watch movies and enjoy our aging pets! I have a BS in Social work from UM, and I previously worked in the mental health field. I’m really looking forward to this new learning opportunity, and working with the youth!
Patti Montgomery-Stewart,
SD-CFC/PAS Coordinator, Missoula
Hello! My name is Patti Montgomery-Stewart and I’m from Missoula. I’m married to my high school sweetheart and we have six adult children. My hobbies are fishing, camping, watching movies, and listening to music. Since I was young I knew I wanted to be able to help people so I went on to be a caregiver for five years and worked with SDMI adults in a group home setting for the last three years. I also managed fast food restaurants for nineteen years, so I suppose if you can handle that kind of stress you can handle just about anything! I’m excited about working as a SD-CFC/PAS Coordinator at Summit’s Missoula office and I look forward to meeting everyone.
