The MCRA has committed scholarship funds to Montana State University's Automobile Collision Repair and Refinishing Technology program. In addition to education and skills development, the MCRA promotes the auto collision industry through legislative efforts to provide body shops and consumers a legal environment that allows them the best opportunity to have vehicles repaired safely and properly.
