Violence Is Not Our Tradition

Our Native youth initiatives are youth-focused and designed to cultivate positive social responses while at the same time helping our Native youth to identify and support healthy avenues toward decision making and community involvement. By building awareness about violence in our Tribal communities, we are creating innovative and strategic approaches that work toward social change and mobilizing community-driven solutions and ensuring that the youth voice is at the table.

Looking to the Future

We are continually working toward strengthening our inter-generational approaches of working with Native youth while also creating developing strategic relationships to increase awareness and build solidarity with our member organizations. In addition, we are working towards strengthening our community resiliency begins by starting the conversations that address violence with Native youth and bring resources to our Tribal communities that are created by youth.
