Description

Alaska Native Heritage Center Suicide Prevention Subsistence Camp Save the date: The Alaska Native Heritage Center is hosting a Suicide Prevention Subsistence Camp September 20 through 24 from 4 to 8 PM to meet the needs of our community. This is a community-based, substance-free social event. Through keynote speakers, group wellness activities, and subsistence workshops with Culture Bearers like Charlie Pardue, our camp will build life skills, foster community healing, and create awareness surrounding suicide myths and statistics from a cultural perspective. This event is fully inclusive, and we invite everyone to attend—all ages and cultural backgrounds are welcome! We look forward to sharing more information about this event in the coming weeks. Haw'aa to the Administration for Native Americans' ILEAD grant and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's Unguwat Grant for making this event possible. Quyana! The Alaska Native Heritage Center, located in Anchorage, Alaska, is dedicated to preserving and strengthening the traditions, languages, and art of Alaska's Native people through statewide collaboration, celebration, and education.
