7th Generation National Tribal Mentoring Program Kinship Mentoring Framework Facilitator Guide
Developed by the Education Development Center under an OJJDP cooperative agreement. The Kinship Mentoring Framework Group Session Facilitator’s Guide reflects the lessons learned during the Seventh Generation National Tribal Mentoring Program, a project that used culturally specific mentoring to guide court-involved and at-risk American Indian and Alaska Native youth (ages 10-17) toward healthy lifestyle choices. The Framework’s guide was developed to assist facilitators in creating 12 group mentoring sessions (called “moons”) appropriate to a specific tribe and its culture. It is a companion piece to the Seventh Generation National Tribal Mentoring Program Mentor Handbook, which provides guidance on the Seventh Generation approach to one-on-one mentoring.
