ABOUT US

First Families Now (FFN) is a 501(3) organization established to focus on the vital needs of children and families in geographically isolated, high need communities throughout Pine Ridge Reservation.  FFN will work with school counselors and social workers at Oglala Lakota County Early Head Start Centers and tribal, grant and publicschools to identify students and families who are in dire need and will personally deliver donations to the schools. FFN will utilize comprehensive initiatives to support, educate, engage and empower families.  Such families can have dramatic and positive impact on their communities.
