Indigenous Mentoring Program Workshop

Marilyn Zimmerman, Senior Director of Policy and Programs, National Native Children's Trauma Center, and Jennifer Harrington, Native American Natural Resource Program Director, W.A. Franke College of Forestry and Conservation, will lead a two-part workshop series for faculty, graduate students, administrators and staff who currently mentor, or who are interested in mentoring, American Indian/Alaska Native students. Attendees will engage in facilitated sessions with a number of presenters who will share knowledge about cultural humility, establishing and sustaining healthy mentor-mentee relationships, and campus and community-wide services and programs available for AI/AN students. The workshop will also focus on Indigenous research methodologies, best practices for disseminating research in Native communities, and Indigenous mentoring practices.
