Pine Ridge reservation’s extreme POVERTY can only be described as Third World. Half the population over 40 on the Pine Ridge reservation has diabetes, and tuberculosis runs at eight times the national rate. As many as two-thirds of adults may be alcoholics, one-quarter of children are born with fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, and the life expectancy is somewhere around the high 40s — shorter than the average for sub-Saharan Africa. Less than 10 percent of children graduate from high school. Location of Devastation Pine Ridge is the 2nd largest reservation in the United States, located in the southwest corner of South Dakota, measuring about the size of Connecticut. Home to the Oglala Lakota (Sioux), Pine Ridge reservation estimates its number of residents around 76,000, including both known enrolled members and non-enrolled members. A plethora of Internet sites are loaded with research and statistical data. However, we wish to address only those associated with the children on Pine Ridge reservation. We believe children are the key to the future, but the Lakota children are not receiving a fair opportunity. SAVE A LIFE. SAVE A CULTURE.
