Grant Overview

Priority Outcomes for Historic Black Churches in South Dakota

The Grant for Revitalizing Historic Black Churches aims to strengthen the ability of historic congregations, preservation organizations, and community groups to care for, utilize, and manage their historic buildings. In South Dakota, the priority outcomes of this grant are closely tied to the state's unique cultural and architectural heritage. The South Dakota State Historical Society, a key partner in historic preservation efforts, works closely with the National Register of Historic Places to identify and protect historic sites, including historic Black churches.

Revitalizing Historic Churches and Community Development

One of the primary priority outcomes of this grant is to revitalize historic Black churches, which are not only significant cultural landmarks but also vital community hubs. In South Dakota, these churches have played a crucial role in the state's history, particularly in communities such as the Black Hills region, where they have served as centers for social and cultural life. By revitalizing these churches, the grant aims to preserve the state's cultural heritage while also supporting community development initiatives. The grant's focus on historic preservation and community development aligns with the state's efforts to promote tourism in the Black Hills, a major economic driver for the region.

Enhancing Preservation Capacity

Another key priority outcome of the grant is to enhance the preservation capacity of historic congregations and preservation organizations in South Dakota. This involves providing resources and support to help these organizations better manage and maintain their historic buildings. The South Dakota State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) is a key resource for these efforts, providing technical assistance and guidance on historic preservation best practices. By enhancing preservation capacity, the grant aims to ensure that historic Black churches in South Dakota are protected for future generations.

Supporting Community Engagement through Historic Preservation

In South Dakota, this involves working with local communities to identify and preserve historic sites, including historic Black churches. The grant's focus on community engagement aligns with the state's efforts to promote heritage tourism, which has been identified as a key economic development opportunity for the state. By supporting community engagement through historic preservation, the grant aims to promote a sense of community pride and ownership, while also driving economic growth.

In terms of specific outcomes, the grant is expected to result in the preservation and revitalization of historic Black churches in South Dakota, as well as enhanced preservation capacity among historic congregations and preservation organizations.
