The Southern Ute Native Connections Program will be contracting with the Native Wellness Institute for numerous virtual events, including a virtual Gathering of Native Americans (GONA), talking circles and support groups, Native humor nights, and trainings. All of these events focus on Native American health and wellness and will be offered to all community members to attend via Zoom.
Dates for these events have not been set. If you have any special events coming up, please let me know so we can be careful and not schedule Native Connections events at the same time.
Please reach out to me if you would like to collaborate or inform others of your program’s/department’s work with issues related to:
- Mental health
- Substance use
- Healthy relationships
- Native American youth
- Domestic violence
- Historical trauma
- Trauma-informed care
- Youth camps
- Prosocial elder events
- Overall Native community wellness
Native Connections would love to work with any program or department that wants to help create a healthier future for our Native Americans and community members!
