Lakota Youth Development recently received a $30,000 grant from First Nations Development Institute of Longmont, Colorado.  This award will support the efforts of Letan Thokatakiya  Wicawothehila meaning “From Here Forward Loving All Life”.

This project will widen LYD’s prairie restoration project through the expansion of their chicken coop, beehives, and our gardens to promote sustainable living to youth as they will receive resources needed to reintegrate Lakota traditional food systems with their own homes and families.
