Prospective participants for this workshop will be: native and non native educators, parent committees, tribalband members, school board members, language teachers, directors of projects, administrators, and many other interested individuals. The cultural relevancy for this workshop must come from each of the participants as they share their traditional and personal stories and expertise.
