Our 2019 webinar series features 10-episodes to educate audiences about the history, impacts, and healing of U.S. Indian boarding school experiences. The Series will be split into two parts, a Spring section that will run from February to June and a Fall section that will go from August to December.

This series is for listeners in tribal governance, education, philanthropy, and community organizing to gain vital knowledge about this important part of American history and how it continues to affect us today.
