The Gathering of Good Minds hosted by Native American Community Services provides opportunities for Native youth and their families to participate in group discussions and planning sessions addressing a wide variety of areas of importance to Native communities, including environmental issues, traditional teachings and practices, education and health issues (including HIV/AIDS), identity issues for Native, bi- and multi-racial youth, rites of passage, and language. Noyes funding supported attendance outreach to Native youth to increase cultural resiliency practices and the leadership of Native youth at the Gathering of Good Minds.
