Northern California Indian Development Council, Inc is hosting a Native Summit meeting titled:
Weaving Wellness In Native Communities
March 31 – April 2, 2011 at the Blue Lake Casino and Hotel
The Northern California Indian Development Council (NCIDC), along with local Tribes and various partnering programs, will be hosting a Community Health and Wellness Summit. The gathering entitled, Weaving Wellness in Native Communities, will be held March 31 – April 2, 2011 at the Blue Lake Casino and Hotel. The summit is an opportunity for the Native American community to come together to begin developing sustainable wellness plans for individuals and Tribal communities. Participants will work together to access tools, training and support to address issues of mutual concern. This will empower them to assist their communities to create the change they envision based upon the culture and traditions of their Tribes.
As part of building and reinforcing a strong family unit, youth will play an integral role at the meeting. A youth track has been designed to provide information and resources targeted to address their needs. Additionally, selected youth will participate in a video documentation effort to capture the process and results of the event.
This gathering will provide communities with an opportunity to develop solutions to the problems that confront them. The summit will focus on the four key areas Mind, Body Spirit and Community. Bringing balance to these components of life will promote the type of wellness that will benefit Native American individuals, families, communities and Tribes.
