Designed to help nonprofit organizations improve their ca pacity to serve their Native American clients, the NNCB grant money enables ONABEN to complete important elements of its Curriculum Renewal Project. The Curriculum Renewal Project has been an ambitious undertaking to create and pub lish culturally relevant training manuals for ONABEN's Native American small business entre preneurs. The new curriculum is story-based, presenting real examples of Native American entrepreneurial success. "Our students will be able to identify with the lives and sto ries in our curriculum as well as be encouraged and inspired to follow their own small business dreams," ONABEN executive director Tom Hampson said. The Native American expe rience is so unique that ONABEN has termed the con ceptwith its own name, 'Indianpreneurship,' a concept that is the focus of the new cur riculum with the first manual titled, "Indianpreneurship: A Native American Journey Into Business." Research shows that cultur ally appropriate strategies in small business development are essential to the success of Na tive American microenterprise, and according to the Aspen In stitute, "training and technical assistance are arguably the most important components of small business development services." Recognizing the importance of adapting training to the needs of the students, Mike Roberts, vice president of the First Na tions Development Institute, said, "ONABEN's Curriculum Renewal Project will not only be highly beneficial for its aspiring Native American entrepreneurs, but will set the standard for in novative learning tools in Na tive American enterprise." Additionally, the NNCB funds will assist ONABEN in two more projects: completing an advanced business manage ment course for current business owners, including alumni of its core business start-up training classes; and refining its agency wide needs assessment and sys tems evaluation. ONABEN, a Native Ameri can business network, was founded in 1991 as a non-profit organization by four Oregon tribes. 1 n fiJK iWi' $tm mmma wrn mmm Have a Great Huckleberry Season, Warm Springs!
