The Kawacatoose First Nation (Cree: ᑲᐚᐦᑲᑐᐢ kawâhkatos)[2] is a Plains Cree First Nations band government in Saskatchewan.

[1] Their reserves include: The First Nation is named for Chief Kawacatoose, an original signatory to Treaty 4.

His name derives from the Cree kawâhkatoso, "be weak with hunger".

Although "hungry skinny man" is a more accurate translation, "poor man" has been used historically and is still the official name of the Poor Man 88 reserve.
