Wolakota Buffalo Range: Rosebud Economic Development Corporation

The Rosebud Economic Development Corporation (REDCO) drives economic and cultural revitalization for the Sicangu Lakota Oyate through Lakota-centered enterprises, including the Wolakota Buffalo Range—home to the world’s largest Native-managed bison herd, restoring ecology and tradition. REDCO also fosters community development via projects like Keya Wakpala Woicageyapi, while creating jobs, workforce training, and cultural programs that empower tribal members. Over six years, their initiatives have generated 60 jobs and pathways for self-sufficiency, blending economic growth with ancestral values.”
