The Kinship Curriculum aims to teach youth about the importance of kinship relationships, encouraging them to become good mentors within their communities. By integrating lessons on responsibilities, regalia making, and feedback from Elders, participants will learn the significance of their connections. The program is designed for youth mentors, incorporating age and gender-appropriate content that is physically engaging and respects Native language vocabulary. Through this curriculum, we hope to cultivate healthier families and strong community bonds, fostering a sense of responsibility among youth to support one another.
