The Healing of the Canoe Spring Conference is a 4-day intensive training for tribes and Indigenous communities who want to develop a youth education program grounded in culture and connection. The conference will be held on April 24-27, 2023, at the Suquamish Tribe's Clearwater Casino and Resort in Suquamish, WA. The Suquamish Tribe’s Healing of the Canoe (HOC) curriculum is a proven, promising practice, for native youth with 14 life skill lessons that utilize tribal knowledge, traditional practices and community volunteers for successful implementation. Using the HOC curriculum as a template, participants will be guided through the adaptation process, so it meets your community’s unique needs and incorporates your cultural teachings. Taught by highly trained and skilled leaders, this conference will use educational, experiential, artistic and cultural teachings to help you achieve your goals.
