Recently, ERHC reported to the Attorney General of Montana that it had experienced a data breach in which sensitive personal identifiable information in its care may have been compromised. According to the breach notice, on April 11, 2025, ERHC detected unusual activity in one of its email accounts.1 As a result, ERHC launched an investigation to determine the nature of the incident.
Through its investigation, ERHC confirmed that the sensitive personal information in several of its email accounts may have been accessed by an unauthorized third party between December 11, 2024, and April 11, 2025.1 As a result, ERHC began a review of the data to determine what information had been impacted as well as identify the specific individuals affected. As of September 29, 2025, the type of information impacted in the breach has not been made publicly available by ERHC.¹ However, according to Montana state reporting guidelines, “personal information” can include the following types of information:
- Name
- Social Security number
- Driver’s license number, state identification number, or tribal identification number
- Account number or credit or debit card number, in combination with any required security code, access code, or password that would permit access to an individual’s financial account

- An identity protection personal identification number issued by the United States internal revenue service
On September 26, 2025, ERHC began mailing data breach notification letters to impacted individuals.
