About the Training

There are many historical traumas that have impacted Native people. One of the biggest policies to have such a lasting impact was the residential and boarding school era where Native children were forcibly removed from their families and sent to what some refer to as “forced assimilation camps.”

This two-day training will provide an overview of this era, how the lasting impacts affect our families and communities, how healing strategies and opportunities can work and how communities can assist in helping members move forward. A team of NWI facilitators will guide training participants through a journey of discovery and healing. Other agencies doing healing work will come and share their resources.

​The training is intended for tribal leaders, community members, community workers and anyone interested in contributing to the healing movement from the residential and boarding school experience.
