Think Outside the Rez!
InterTribal Youth’s eye-opening guided tours are our most popular programs. Each year our staff leads small groups of Native Youth and Adults as well as non-Native folks on tours and outdoor adventures that weave academics, adventure, recreation, and cultural exploration into life-changing experiences. Optional, educational course work is tailored to students in grades 8 – 12. There is no GPA requirement to participate. College students, parents and other adults are welcome to attend and serve as mentors, partners and chaperones.
