Sac & Fox Nation Of Missouri In Kansas

Sac & Fox Nation Of Missouri In Kansas, doing business as Sac & Fox Trdg Post / Smoke SP, is a federally recognized tribal government headquartered in Hiawatha, Kansas that operates as a federal grant recipient (100% of awards) providing public transit, child care and early childhood services, environmental and air quality program management, tribal justice infrastructure, victim services, and public health programming to tribal members and rural residents across Brown County, Kansas and Richardson County, Nebraska.

The tribe operates an extensive portfolio of federal formula and project grants across social services, transportation, environmental protection, and justice system capacity building. Recent representative grants include a $1.4 million project grant from the Department of Justice's Bureau of Justice Assistance (awarded October 1, 2023, completion September 30, 2028) to construct a permanent 8,100 square-foot modular facility housing the tribal court and police department in a single structure; multiple formula grants from the Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families and Office of Child Care for child welfare services, child care development funds, and family violence prevention services (recurring annual awards October 2024 through September 2028); a $127,680 formula grant from EPA Region 7 (awarded July 1, 2025, completion September 30, 2026) for restart and development of the tribe's air quality monitoring and environmental protection programs, including training for air program staff and construction of an ambient air monitoring station; and a series of Federal Transit Administration grants supporting rural public transportation operations, vehicle maintenance, and service expansion (September 2025 through December 2026, July 2026 completion).

Customer concentration is heavy across social services and environmental agencies. The Environmental Protection Agency holds 25 awards, the Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families holds 25 awards, the Public Health Service holds 23 awards, and the Department of the Interior Bureau of Indian Affairs and Indian Education holds 14 awards — together accounting for 64% of the tribe's total award count. Award activity averaged 6 to 11 grants per year over the past five years, with ten awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore facing recompete in that window. The tribe acts exclusively as a prime recipient on all federal grants; no subrecipient or subcontractor relationships appear in the source data. The tribe's capability portfolio is concentrated in tribal governance and social service delivery rather than commercial contracting — all work is performed directly by the Sac & Fox Nation for the benefit of tribal members and rural residents in its service territory.
