Safe sitter class offered to teens (The follow ing article is sub m itted by the Warm Springs Community H ealth F.ducatio Team.) In Native cultures, the cycle and celebration of life are defined by the changes in seasons. Ceremonies are held to recognize the passing of one season and the beginning of another. Each of the four seasons has a special meaning, yet spring in particular represents a time for new beginnings, cellular regeneration, birth and profound change. .As M arch 21 officially m arks the beginn ing of spring in the northern hemi sphere, Native community stakeholders from around the nation have selected this day to commemorate the first annual National Native (Ameri can Indian, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian) HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. The beginning of spring is the first time in the New Year’s cycle that the lengths of day and night are equal— this is a time of per fect balance. Many native groups believe that this equality or balance oc curs physically, emotionally, in tellectually, and spiritually. By choosing the first day of spring to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS among the Na tive people, we call attention to the regeneration that is pos sible when we take an active role in our health to secure our future. Perhaps w e, as N ative people, will awaken to the call for health y and p o sitive change— for bringing about balance and healing of our communities. HIV continues to increase among Native people as it has over the past decade— this day will challenge us to work together, in harmony, to create a greater awareness of the risk of HIV/AIDS to our Native communities, to call for resources for testing and early detection and for increased options of treat ment, and to eventually de crease the occurrence of HIV/AIDS among native people: protect your blood, protect our people, stop the silence, know your status, get tested.
