Martin Luther King, Jr., reminded us that “the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” Change takes a long time - proud to be an actor in this vision for our future.

My colleagues @toyafick @BekahSabzalian @MattMortonPDX @forabetterOR are working every day for our children in Oregon. Ask yourself everyday, What have I done today to support our children? They need us today to help them charter their tomorrows.

November is Native American Heritage Month- visit a native museum or cultural center in your area. Learn our history- it informs our future.

Trauma-informed practices are beginning to take hold in mainstream institutions, like public schools, but many of these efforts are not designed to include some of the most effective protective factors for Native people 1/3
