Community can be a cornerstone of identity and social connections can provide individuals with a sense of belonging, support, and guidance. That guidance may be influential, or even crucial, in making life decisions. These experiences, connections, and relationships can motivate community members to ensure the future growth, health, and success of the next generation.

Watch this webinar to hear from three Indigenous speakers who mentor Indigenous youth to share knowledge in their communities and beyond, and to help youth strengthen connections to their culture — and to each other.
