This workshop presentation discusses the Taku Eyachantognaka Owihankeya Wanica project, which was conducted with Native Women’s Society of the Great Plains, and researchers at the University of South Dakota and the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, and funded by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) National Institute for Justice (NIJ).
This workshop and the related research project, funded by the US Department of Justice (DOJ) National Institute of Justice (NIJ), is a partnership between the Native Women’s Society of the Great Plains, the University of South Dakota, and the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs. These workshops were designed to involve Native American stakeholders who are interested in prevention of youth violence and the development of resiliency. Discussions were centered around research they would like to see completed on these topics. A key goal of this project is developing a future grant designed around priorities identified from these conversations. A focus of this study is to identify priority areas for future research and grant applications in collaboration with Tribal partners. At the conclusion of this research, researchers will send out a write-up with findings that participants may use in their communities. Suggestions for use include narrative in a grant proposal, advocacy, discussions with stakeholders, etc.
