Abstract
What methods can educational programs and facilitators utilize to respectfully and responsibly provide community and curriculum that recognizes Indigenous history, ways of knowing, and ways of being? How can implementation of such methods inspire growth and security in Indigenous youth? This curriculum is an ongoing and ever-evolving exploration of cultural adaptation of materials focused on healthy relationships and sexual health education content for Alaska Native and Native American youth. The ways that we speak to Indigenous youth regarding these potentially sensitive topics is vital, creating familiarity and safety in these learning spaces allows for connection and a natural flow of knowledge sharing and learning.
