Webinar: Helping Native Youth Succeed through Family and Community Engagement: Supporting Native Students with Disabilities

The White House Initiative on Advancing Educational Equity, Excellence, and Economic Opportunity for Native Americans and Strengthening Tribal Colleges and Universities (WHI TCU), along with the U.S. Departments of Labor and Education, will host a virtual four-part dialogue series that addresses multiple topics impacting employment for the American Indian and Alaska Native community. The second of these dialogues will occur on March 15, 2023 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. ET which will provide perspectives from Native individuals (including youth) on the values of community-driven solutions in supporting Native students with disabilities. Speakers from various tribal nations will explore culturally informed strategies that help address the lack of community-driven approaches that often fall short in addressing the needs of Native youth.
