CHILDREN
OF ALCOHOLICS
We must not forget the Children of Alcoholics. They are
often neglected, first by their parents, and then by the
recovery community. Too often they think "it's their
fault." This special gathering can be an opportunity
to share the experience, strength, and hope of those who
are Children of Alcoholics. |

WELLBRIETY
FOR YOUTH
As the Wellbriety Movement continues to grow, we also
realized that more than half of the Native American population
is under the age of 18. Thus, we are launching a Wellbriety
for Youth effort lead by Jeri Brunoe Samson. This program
will reach out to youth across America to help them create
a Voice for Wellbriety and lead the Wellbriety Movement
into the future. |

NATIVE
AMERICAN AL-ANON
Recovery support is important for those who are friends
and relatives of the alcoholic. Al-Anon is a valuable
resource for this support, yet it is not available in
Native American communities. This is a special opportunity
to learn how to establish Al-Anon meetings and how to
tap into this valuable resource. |
