because of you

Together we will

This year marked the first year of our new strategic plan in action.

Our board of directors, executive team and leadership developed a four-year strategic plan and line of sight that guides our work toward making the greatest contribution to accomplishing our vision that all people in South Dakota will be healthy, safe and accepted.

We continue to identify areas for positive impact through listening to unmet community needs, collaboration and strategic priorities that are family-centered and ensure equitable access for those we serve.

To accomplish our vision, we will pursue program opportunities that strengthen families and implement programming that keeps children and youth in their homes and communities.

These priorities are put to work in every service line at LSS. Our operational strategies put focus on workforce & inclusivity within our organization and communities, financial viability of the agency and our services and sharing the positive impact our work makes in the community through storytelling.

Together we will make a significant impact for the people of South Dakota.

All because of your support.

Rebecca Kiesow-Knudsen PRESIDENT/CEO

our mission Inspired by God’s love, we care for, support and strengthen individuals, families and communities.

our vision All people in South Dakota will be healthy, safe and accepted.

commitment to work toward race equity “I know your job isn’t easy and you probably don’t get told very often how many people’s lives you are positively impacting every day!

But you really are! We would literally be homeless, sleeping on a friend’s living room floor in a month or so if it weren’t for you.

We are forever grateful!”

— Client, LSS CARES Wraparound Services

LSS acknowledges racial and ethnic differences because of the profound impact they have on individuals, groups, communities and society.

In order to foster an organizational culture that is cognizant of race and ethnicity, we will engage in honest and respectful conversations about the role of race and culture in the work we do. We will hold ourselves accountable for continual improvement in working toward racial equity. We will advocate for solutions to the social injustices that result from systemic racism. We invite you to join us on this journey.

“Seeing a lot of you guys keep your composure motivated me to do the same. I have so much gratitude for every single one of you. Thank you for supporting me in the dark times.”

I stopped carrying the weight of my finances around on my shoulders.

*Change in Net Assets Explanation: Lutheran Housing Corp transferred Northport Apartments, which had been lost to a fire in 2020, to California Commercial Investments (CCI) in September 2022. The Program Expense reflects the transfer of the restricted insurance proceeds to CCI, who then worked with HUD to rebuild the property.

“Literally my son was the only thing keeping me alive at that point in time. People should never feel the way I did. LSS was there to help me and my son. We think we are alone. It’s not true. It felt like LSS made me feel like I was at home. It was a completely judge-free zone. They made me feel like I was a person—that I could be seen. Thank you for letting me cry and letting me feel again. Thank you for pulling me out of a black hole, out of the pit of despair. Thank you for making me feel like a good mom. LSS saved me and my son.”
