Empowering Native Youth
"As well-equipped as many schools are in their facilities for carrying out certain activities with youth, their environments are often too constrictive, generally uncreative and distantly removed from both nature and community. For all their good intentions, they all too often rob children of their most precious gift-their freedom to simply be, to experience, experiment and express." Alejandro Lopez
