What if your tribe erased you?

“Imagine being erased from your own tribe - stripped of your identity, community, and rights without explanation. It’s happening right now through tribal disenrollment.” https://nativenewsonline.net/currents/next-on-native-bidaske-what-if-your-tribe-erased-you

The new documentary, You’re No Indian, will be available to view on Friday, June 20th at 12:00 pm ET on Facebook and YouTube. If you have a chance, please watch this film to learn more. It is important for everyone, especially mental health care organizations here in Vermont to understand the devasting effects of this practice and learn how to support those who have been disenrolled. Abenaki Health and Heritage will provide training to any healthcare organization who would like to learn more about working with people in the Vermont Abenaki community. We have trainings around disenrollment, historical and intergeneration trauma, lateral violence and Abenaki health and wellness. If you are interested in a training, please contact Joanne Crawford at jrcraw@abenakihealthandheritage.org.
