During the summer, Black Hills Reads piloted a new program with Black Hills State University College of Education interns to provide reading intervention for elementary school students in Belle Fourche during the summer. Summer learning loss is an issue for many students and without intervention these children will continue to fall further and further behind in their reading skills. Our goal is that the children who receive this support will not suffer any learning loss and will start the year on track in their reading skills. If successful, we hope to expand this model to other IMPACT communities in the Black Hills.

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB Two children were placed in a foster home in Hot Springs, and their foster parents enrolled them at the Club to have a safe place for them to go on Fridays. Throughout the year, they were transferred from foster home to foster home several times. Throughout all the shifts and changes they experienced, the Club became a constant in their lives. Even when they were moved between Hot Springs and Custer, they made it a point to be at the Club on Fridays. They both expressed how happy they were to be at the Club on a regular basis.

ACTION FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE COMMUNITY (ABC) ABC was able to provide ten $500 scholarships for families who did not have the resources to pay for their child to attend the Sturgis Youth Center summer program. The parents and families receiving the scholarship funds have been very appreciative of ABC’s ability to offer scholarships. Without the funds, the youth would have to either stay home alone during the daytime hours or go to a daycare.

CLUB FOR BOYS When Gwendyllyn Smoke and her two sons (pictured) were homeless, the Club for Boys was a place where her boys could be just boys. After being evicted from their apartment of eight years, Smoke and her boys moved into the Cornerstone Rescue Mission until they could find another affordable place. The Club became a lifeline of encouragement and safety for the boys during the day. “They understood we didn’t have a home. The Club was their getaway,” she said. Smoke and her boys, ages 9 and 11, are now in their own apartment, and the Club has continued to serve as a safe, reliable place for her boys to spread their wings.

BIG BROTHERS BIG SISTERS IN SPEARFISH Kenny*, a 12 year-old boy with ADHD and a speech impediment, was interviewed for the Big Brothers Big Sisters Outdoor Adventures Program.

Kenny has shared how much he appreciates, looks up to and loves Karl. Kenny has his sights set on graduating high school and going on to learn welding and/or joining the National Guard. * Stories are based on true stories, but names have been changed to protect privacy.

ELLSWORTH AFB FAMILY READINESS CENTER A certified personal financial counselor worked with a family struggling with financial issues. There ended up being a large deficit each month stemming from a car payment that was taking up 75% of the family’s income. They were no longer able to maintain this payment and were living off credit cards which they could not afford. The counselor worked with this family and their creditors for several months, to ensure that the family had a small amount of income remaining after bills each month.

SALVATION ARMY OF THE BLACK HILLS A single woman in Sturgis had been forced to leave her rented home due to significant damage from a water main break. She ended up having to switch power companies when she moved. She also paid out of pocket to move, after losing the wages due to missing work during the crisis. This ended up putting her behind on her utilities. Salvation Army was able to keep her utilities from getting shut off and she was able to get right back on her feet. PRAIRIE HILLS TRANSIT A passenger in Edgemont began utilizing Prairie Hills Transit three times a week to attend addiction recovery appointments. Now, her trips to addiction recovery are down to once a week, and she takes trips for other medical appointments as well as for personal needs and shopping.

NEIGHBORWORKS John and Mary Alexander* have been foster parents for many years. Upon moving to Belle Fourche, South Dakota, they found that they could not afford a traditional mortgage for a home the size they needed to continue being foster parents. The Alexanders’ discovered NeighborWorks where they learned of the Governor’s House program through South Dakota Housing Development Authority. Housing Counselor, Carol McMann, assisted the Alexanders’ with researching all available options. They purchased a three bedroom home with a HERO Homebuyer Education course and a 0% interest Down Payment/Closing Cost. The Alexanders moved into their new home and are delighted to be hosting foster children again.

AMERICAN RED CROSS OF CENTRAL & WESTERN SD The Custer flood of 2019 brought widespread flooding to many communities across South Dakota. American Red Cross of Central & Western SD teams supported Disaster Relief Operations across the state, including one in Custer. Neighborhoods began to flood after a storm in early August and Red Cross volunteers immediately deployed to help. An emergency shelter was established at the local YMCA where volunteers cared for people who were evacuated from their homes. Residents were given a safe place to stay, food, beverages, blankets and other essentials until they were able to return home. CATHOLIC SOCIAL SERVICES Kelly*, a single parent of a toddler-age daughter, graduated in Dec. 2018 with a bachelors degree from South Dakota State University College of Nursing. Today, she’s employed as a registered nurse at Monument Health in Spearfish. Along the way, she received support from the UP program. For two years, Kelly and her daughter received 2nd-generation intensive mentoring and case management services from an UP mentor, as well as a monthly stipend, that helped her finish college. FEEDING SOUTH DAKOTA BACKPACK PROGRAM “Our school often is overlooked by many government programs, although we have MANY students whose families are in need of resources. It doesn’t always show in the ways that are measured. We appreciate the Backpack Program and what it provides for our families. We can’t always show a need in the ways that are measurable according to the tools our education system currently uses!” - Anonymous teacher in Meade County. WELLFULLY IN RAPID CITY Betty* came to WellFully at the age of 12 years-old. She was in the custody of DSS and had been placed in foster care after being removed from her biological parents due to their drug and alcohol issues, as well as abuse and neglect. Blaming herself for the family being apart, she would take out her anger by self harming and getting into trouble. At WellFully, she was able to work through these emotions and began trusting the staff. As a recipient of a WellFully scholarship, she has worked hard through her senior year of college, where she recently graduated with a BA in Human and Family Development from Arizona State University.
