[ Big Water Launch ] The Northern Cheyenne Health and Housing Needs Assessment

04/02/2024

The Northern Cheyenne Tribe hosted an Initial Consultation for their Health and Housing Needs Assessment on April 2nd and 3rd, 2024, in Lame Deer, Montana. This planning session is a crucial step towards understanding and addressing the most pressing needs of the residents of the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation. Participants in the session took part in various activities to review the history of the tribe and its programs and to develop content for the household survey portion of the project.

The project aims to collect crucial information about housing, healthcare, education, employment, and infrastructure. In gathering these stories, the tribe will be able to accurately quantify and record the experiences and challenges community members experience, equipping tribal departments and programs with data to develop effective plans and attract funding for resources to uplift the community.

Thank you to all stakeholders who participated in the Planning Session and its activities.
