The key to ending school violence and drug
use lies in the students themselves. In spite of repeated advice and
cautions from caring adults, the power of youthful peer pressure is just too
strong for many young people to overcome. We must accept this fact and
focus on training students to become a powerful force for drug
prevention.
Our program is very comprehensive and the only Native violence and drug prevention program in the world.
- All training and curriculum are linked
together and are respectful of Indian culture and traditional values.
- All curriculum and training materials
are mutually reinforcing, sequenced by grade and designed to reinforce
Native learning strengths.
- All materials and systems have been
developed by experienced Native professionals and, thusly, are relevant to
"on and off" reservation life.
- Training and curriculum combines new
education technologies, while capitalizing on Indian learning strengths.
- All materials have been designed
specifically for Native people - not "adapted" or "infused" from
non-Native programs.
Services based on 25 years of working
experience with Native schools throughout the United States and Canada.
