Native American Education:  Promoting Strength-Based Community

Native Americans are making significant gains in higher education,

yet still experience high levels of poverty and major health disparities. 

Because we come from strength-based cultural communities and have

learned to be resilient, we can create more opportunities for success. 

What does it mean to be resilient?  How can education promote a path

to healing?  Why is cultural identity important to living a healthy life? 

These topics and questions will be explored during this presentation.
