Description

An American Indian culturally grounded transitional living program available to youth between the ages of 16 - 21 who have no parental substitute or foster home to which they can safely go. This intervention program emphasizes training, education, and employment goals and is designed to develop a support system to meet the needs of the body, mind, and spirit. Services emphasize the relationship between youth and positive role models (staff and elders) to teach new behaviors, learn appropriate ways to express feelings, and manage everyday living. Creating community and cultural connections prepares youth for independent or interdependent living, helping to break the cycle of homelessness.
