Together, We Can Make a Difference — it takes the entire community
Meaningful change happens when our community comes together with open hearts, honest understanding, and a shared commitment to hope. Whether you give your time, your resources, or your voice, you play a vital role in creating a stronger and more connected Black Hills. Homelessness affects individuals and families throughout Rapid City and the surrounding areas every day. Behind each statistic is a person — a neighbor, a coworker, a relative, a classmate — whose story deserves to be heard.
Community Education
Understanding homelessness and housing instability is more than learning about statistics — it’s about uncovering the real stories, challenges, and systems that affect our neighbors. Education helps break down stereotypes, promote empathy, and inspire action that truly makes a difference.
Attend a We Connect Community Toolkit Presentation
Learn how to better support our unhoused neighbors and strengthen community connections — and discover what services, supports, and resources are actually available in our area. Times and dates can be found on our Events.
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
