The Yankton Red Cross office provides residents of Yankton County with disaster relief from house fires, floods,  blizzards, or other types of disasters, emergency messaging from military dependents to their military loved one wherever in the world, and teaching life-saving health and safety classes such as CPR, First Aid, swimming lessons and babysitting classes. In 2004, the Yankton Board of Directors decided the office should become a service office rather than a chapter. The Sioux Empire Board of Directors agreed to administer the Yankton office, but with all services, programs and fundraising accomplished by the Yankton Red Cross. An advisory board provides guidance to the activities of the Yankton office while the Sioux Empire Board of Directors provide governance and final decisions. The part-time staff of the Yankton Red Cross report to the Sioux Empire Red Cross. Contact information for the Yankton Red Cross is below.
