About the company
Cheyenne River Youth Project Inc., headquartered in Eagle Butte, South Dakota, is a Native American-owned, minority-owned, and woman-owned nonprofit organization registered with SAM.gov since February 2010. The organization serves the Cheyenne River Sioux Reservation and provides federal grants support focused on youth development, cultural preservation, arts programming, and food security initiatives. As a tax-exempt corporate entity, Cheyenne River Youth Project Inc. has established itself as a prime federal grantee working to strengthen communities through culturally relevant programming that addresses critical needs including language preservation, artistic expression, and nutritional security for Lakota youth and families.
The organization has received nine prime federal grants and one sub-grant award spanning 2021 through 2026, demonstrating consistent engagement with multiple federal agencies. The National Endowment for the Arts has been the primary funding partner, supporting four distinct initiatives: the REDCAN Graffiti Jam public art project (awarded annually from 2022 through 2024, with a continuation award in 2025), the design of the Waniyetu Wowapi Lakota Youth Arts and Culture Institute facility (2021), and ongoing support for staff salaries and artist fees for the REDCAN public art project (2025). The National Endowment for the Humanities provided project grant support for the Lakota Language and Culture Internship program (2022-2023), which developed curriculum and instructional programming for teens ages 13-18 in conjunction with tribal elders and language experts. The Institute of Food Safety and Nutrition funded a comprehensive food sovereignty planning initiative (2021-2023) designed to strengthen local food systems and reduce food insecurity on the reservation. Additional federal support included a COVID-19 relief grant from the Agricultural Marketing Service (2022-2023). Most recently, Cheyenne River Youth Project Inc. received a sub-award through South Arts, Inc. from an arts-focused federal grant program (2024) supporting assessment, planning, and capacity building for construction of the organization's first dedicated arts and culture facility. Through these varied grant programs, the organization has leveraged federal funding to support staff positions, provide honoraria to tribal elders and cultural instructors, develop culturally grounded curricula, and advance physical infrastructure and programming that directly serves Lakota youth and community members.
