Report: 'Native youth are medicine'

In a year ravaged by a global pandemic, the Center for Native American Youth has aptly named their 2020 State of Native Youth report, “Native Youth Are Medicine.”

Released annually during Native American Heritage Month, the report shines a light on the priorities of Native youth and the issues, such as climate change and social justice, that they are already taking the lead on.

For the first time in the brief history of the report, Native youth authored each chapter and CNAY executive director Nikki Pitre, Coeur d’Alene Tribe, said putting it all together was a “labor of love.”
