who we are

Change the Rez was founded on the principles of community, caring, empowerment and teamwork.

Everyone involved in working together with Change the Rez, on making changes here on the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, are passionate about taking our community to the next level.

We know we can do better.  We know we can make the change.  We know we can make tomorrow a better place for our youth and our communities.  And we're asking for everyone's help to make it a reality.  

WHO ARE THE PEOPLE BEHIND IT

CEO-President - Erik Johannessen

Secretary - Sabrina Reese

Treasurer - Matt Deserly

Director - David Gonzales

Director - Thomas Black Eagle

Director - Carrier Manning

Each and every person working behind the scenes have seen first hand the detrimental issues facing our Reservation.  We recognize the immense lack of programs and initiatives that exist here due to severe lack of funding.  We want to combat this in order to foster healthy families, well rounded and educated youth, reduce our numbers of addiction and homelessness, and reduce the amount of youth not finishing school.

Together we can do this.
