This will be the second of a TYRC Online Learning Event series focused on the needs and current service gaps of unsheltered and runaway Native youth across the country. During this Online Learning Event (OLE), Frankie White Dress, Director, Oglala Sioux Tribe Emergency Youth Shelter, and Sheri Riemers (Nindaanisequay, White Earth Nation) Executive Director, Ain Duh Young Center (www.adycenter.org), will share prevention and intervention strategies that are proving to be successful in working with unsheltered and runaway Native youth. Alejandra Bruyere, California Native Youth Collective Representative for the Center for Native American Youth, will also share stories of resilience and hope. Data collection strategies and resources on this topic will be provided during the OLE to support OLE participants that are seeking to expand their services to this population of Native youth.
