  • LAKOLYA WAONIYA PROGRAM
    NOURISHING CULTURAL IDENTITY THROUGH LANGUAGE & CEREMONY - The Lak̇ota language is a key part of our strength and sovereignty as a nation. In 2021, In order to revitalize our language and culture, we launched a program to hire members of the Siċaŋġu Oyate to become fluent Lak̇ota speakers.
    The program is called Lak̇olya Waoniya — “Breathing Life into the Lak̇ota Language” — and is a paid, holistic development experience centered on developing Lakota language fluency and strengthening Lak̇ota lifeways.
    When we speak our language and practice our spiritual ways, we heal and restore ourselves and the Oyate. Young people grow up stronger when they hear their native language surrounding them in song, prayer, and laughter. Lak̇olya Waoniya is preparing the next generation of Lakota speakers so they can help teach and strengthen the next generation.
