The Yellowstone Country Assistance Network was created in 2007 to empower organizations in Park County Wyoming to increase their capacity while servicing those living in poverty. Our mandate is to provide a “clearinghouse on available resources”, grant funding for poverty reducing programs to non-profits, and training for non-profits working with individuals and families living in poverty.
Our Mission
In partnership with local services providers, empower people living in the Big Horn Basin of Wyoming to enhance health, housing, employment status, overcome obstacles, & end economic hardship.

We envision communities in the Big Horn Basin in which the most vulnerable people will have the power to lift themselves out of poverty and create vital, healthy lives for their families and communities now and in the future.
