This workshop is a follow up and deeper discussion into how to best support Native students in the education system. Topics will include sovereignty, the definition of historical trauma and the ways it shows up currently, and different types of Tribal enrollment.
At the end of the workshop, attendees will have learned how historical trauma affects Native youth – especially those in the foster care system – and how to best support Native students in Washington state.
Presented by Kateri Joe of Treehouse and Shoshaunee Perez of Northwest Indian College.
