Youth Program

The Heart of Our Community

Our youth program provides self-empowerment, prevention services, cultural education, mentorship and academic guidance for our future leaders on the path to success. Through cultural programs and ceremonies, our youth are grounded in the foundation of community and connection with a sense of pride for who they are.

Stay up to date on all our youth events!

Children are sacred beings and are the center of our lives. Without them life has no meaning.
