Collecting ideas and concerns from Native American youth is vital to the Center for Native American Youth (CNAY)’s work. In order to raise awareness to Native youth issues and foster solutions, we need to be respectfully sharing this information with a larger audience. The Voices of Native Youth Report is a yearly effort to provide current feedback from Native American youth regarding challenges and successes in Indian Country. The purpose of the report is to summarize and share what CNAY learns on an annual basis from young people in Indian Country, thereby creating a platform to elevate the on-the-ground youth voices across tribal and urban Indian communities.
