Cancelled - Walking the Four Directions - A Traditional View of Discipline

"Walking the Four Directions - A Traditional View of Discipline"
Early Childhood through Adolescence

Using the "laws of nature" and a "relational view" of the world, this workshop explores how the four cardinal directions or "Medicine Wheel" can be used as a framework that educators, human services professionals, or other that work with Tribal youth, can use to help them define a style of discipline or leadership that is strength-based, non-confrontational and culturally sensitive. This workshop will use a variety of techniques such as lecture, small and large group activities, role plays and demonstrations to deliver the information in a way that is conducive to the adult style of learning.

Participants will learn:

• A traditional view of discipline
• How to build positive relationships with youth
• Proactive means of teaching or working with youth
• How to promote balanced youth with strong leadership skills
• How to move youth towards independence and self-reliance

Target Audience: Teachers, Administrators, Para-educators, Headstart Staff , Foster/Adoptive Parents, Juvenile Probation Workers, Group Home, Detention or Shelter Home Workers, Parent Trainers, Substance Abuse Workers or anyone that works with Native American Youth and Families. The concepts can be applied by new or veteran staff and is also geared towards supervisors of staff who are responsible for working with Native American children and families. This training can also be "hand-tailored" or individualized based on participant's requests and objectives.
