We R Native

Organization Country: United States

We R Native is a resource page for native youth, by native youth. It’s literally us but specifically for native youth.


Native youth


They offer lots of online resources available to anyone, and do outreach via community projects, sending ambassadors to conferences, and inviting any native youth to contribute as much or as little as they like on the website. There are mental health resources, career resources, and more.


“Ask your relative,” and a few different programs/articles for LGBTQ native youth, a group which is doubly more likely to commit suicide than being part of either single group.



A central group that runs the website and provides “incentives” (money) to anybody who wants to be an ambassador for We R Native. Again, very similar to us.

“funds from the Indian Health Service and the Minority AIDS Initiative Fund, and by a GLS suicide prevention grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration.”

What else stands out?

Website is kinda chunky, but overall the organization is REMARKABLY similar to what we want to do.
