We need your help! The Cheyenne River Youth Project is looking for energetic, dedicated, and passionate individuals and groups to volunteer in our teen and youth center.Volunteers work hard at CRYP to provide a fun, safe place for children to come spend time with us everyday. Among other tasks, they help staff implement much of the youth programming we do, aid in the delivery of family services, prepare nutritious meals and snacks for the children, and perform day to day operational tasks such as building maintenance and fundraising. Our volunteers put in long hours and lots of hard work but the experience is a life changing one.
We are looking for both the short and long term volunteers. For more information on our organization and the application process, please visit lakotayouth.org. We hope to see you soon!

Mission Statement
The mission of the Cheyenne River Youth Project (CRYP) is to provide the youth of the Cheyenne River reservation access to a vibrant and secure future through a wide variety of culturally sensitive and enduring programs, projects and facilities, ensuring strong, self-sufficient families and communities.
Description
In the last 25 years, CRYP has developed into one of the largest direct social services programs on the Cheyenne River Reservation and the only such program that is tailored to meet the special needs of the community. CRYP programs and services have grown, with the community, to face the challenges presented to each new generation of youth. The poverty that exists on the Reservation has had a profound effect on family structure and self-esteem (for both adults and children), and contributes to a variety of social ills such as drug and alcohol dependency, neglect and abuse. CRYP serves the community by offering youth programs and family services that immediately improve lives and create opportunities for the future through fostering healthy choices and practices in all life areas.
