UNITY then and now. . . We have accomplished so many things over the years. And more recently, we had our largest National UNITY conference with 3,000 Native American Youth. Our Founder, JR Cook would be proud of the work we are all doing! ❤️💙

UNITY has partnered with the Southwestern Indian Polytechnical Institute Summer Bridge Program to offer a Healing Circle Training. Together they have identified they would like to advocate for mental health of their student body and are planning their first event to be implemented next weekend.
