As we expand our ministry, I thought it would be good to share with you the thoughts of some of our supporters from the tribes.

"I believe a program like this would have a very positive impact on our communities. We currently struggle with alcohol, drugs, domestic violence, divorce, single parent families, teen pregnancy, grief due to loss, suicide and this list goes on. With our limited resources it is a challenge to get our youth the support they are crying out for." Stefanie Lelone, Social Worker I/Lead Youth Coordinator, Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation TANF Program

"Our department responds to a large number of alcohol and drug abuse related incidents that involve and or affect minors. Having such a positive and powerful tool available for the families to see and build upon will greatly improve the Indian Nation as a whole and support it to grow strong and healthy." Rory Gilliland, Chief of Police, Colville Confederated Tribes

"The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs support the Extraordinary Young People, Inc. in their effort to provide a youth center program in our community. We are committed to our next generation as it will be today's young people who will lead us into the future." Lauraina Hintsala, Chief Operations Officer, Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs
