We are the Center for Native American Youth

Our Vision is for all Native American youth to lead full and healthy lives, to have equal access to opportunity, and to draw strength from their culture and inspire one another.

Invest in Native Youth

This Giving Tuesday, consider supporting The Center for Native American Youth (CNAY) in our efforts to improve the health, safety, and overall well-being of Native American Youth.

CNAY is a national education and advocacy organization that works alongside Native American youth from across the nation to provide opportunities, trainings, and platforms to support positive change. Native youth are capable of creating solutions to better our world, and CNAY is the vessel to support them. Your contribution supports our youth-led movement through narrative change, civic engagement, leadership and empowerment and more.

Thank you for your commitment to Native American youth. Please, share this message with those in your network who are as invested in Native youth as we are.

"I’m passionate about getting people excited about food sovereignty, but in ways that make it accessible. I think it’s important for indigenous people around the world to decolonize their minds, diets, and really think about wellness from a traditional perspective.”
