Lakota Wellness Society, Inc.

About

The Lakota Wellness Society works to empower Indigenous people to become physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually healthy. We advocate for lifestyles based in Lakota culture. We provide mutual aid to people on the Rosebud Indian reservation in South Dakota. Our volunteers distribute food bundles and other donations as resources allow.

We empower healthy Indigenous families by supporting grassroots led food sovereignty projects. For example, our efforts include collaborating with the Rosebud Sioux Tribe in sponsoring a garden contest. Entries of organic, wildcrafted or homegrown foods are showcased and awarded prizes every August as part of the annual Rosebud Fair.
