YOUTH COUNCIL
Our Youth Council provides guidance and advice on the events, programs, and services that NmTC provides to our Member Nations' youth.
The Youth Council represents Naut'sa mawt Tribal Council's 10 Member Nations and supports the work of NmTC with their new ideas, passion, and vision for a better future. The Youth Council meets virtually bi-monthly to share and learn with one another, connect, participate in workshops, and to think about how NmTC can better support youth in its member communities.
Our Youth Council members come from a variety of backgrounds and in their communities are: teachers, students, band staff, councilors, landscapers, and more. Youth have expressed interests in leadership development, connecting with their elders, learning cultural activities, empowering other youth, and sharing knowledge and resources back to their communities.
Youth Council members are invited to contribute to youth initiatives and attend Board of Directors meetings.
