Lakota Youth Development Media Specialist
Lakota Youth Development is a 28-year-old native nonprofit. Our mission is to help Lakota youth rise through Wolakota. We offer experiential, evidence-based cultural camps and retreats, leadership societies, afterschool programs, and youth-led social enterprises that include local and international apprenticeships. Our primary focus is to help Lakota youth reclaim their language, culture, and spirituality. Culture is prevention to addictions and unhealthy, life-threatening activities that are so pervasive. We use a multigenerational; strengths-based approach providing a sacred, safe space at our 10-acre camp. We help youth identify and test their strengths and passions to become successful adults.
