Ready to learn about land from the people whose land you are on?
We are inviting creative and innovative Black, Indigenous and youth of color who want to learn more about the land they are on for our very first Indigenous-led youth program!
Activities include field trips, visits to rematriated sites, ecological knowledge sharing, cultural activities, arts, gardening, political education and much more! Plus, youth receive an educational gift for participating.
Mitiini Numma means “To Grow The Truth” in Chochenyo. We hope that youth who participate in our program learn about the true history of the place they reside, the people who have stewarded it, and the plants and animals they share it with.
Join Mitiini Numma this Summer 2024!
