Pretty Shield, a highly respected medicine woman of the Crow Nation, had visions of the future and of the trials that her posterity would face.
Her insight has inspired the establishment of the Pretty Shield Foundation, dedicated to helping youth and families overcome the challenges that today's society presents.

The Pretty Shield Foundation (PSF) administers programs so powerful that they define a whole new level of results in the transformation of troubled youth, their families and their communities.

PSF is a 501(C)3 organization comprised of three divisions: American Indian Division, General Services Division, and the Fund Development Division.

PSF offers wilderness treatment programs, emotional-growth boarding schools, equine therapy, and residential treatment centers for at-risk youth and adults of any ethnicity, dedicating proceeds to Native American causes, scholarships, and other worthy foundations.
