UNITY Regional Profile
The UNITY Pacific Region Represents California and Hawaii. Our goal is to provide a voice for the youth of the Pacific and uphold UNITY’s mission of fostering the spiritual, mental, physical, and social development of American Indian and Alaska Native youth.
2022 Spring Pacific Virtual Meet-Up
At the meet-ups, youth councils are invited to gather to grow relationships and work towards goals. These MeetUps will serve as a networking opportunity as well as a brainstorming session for how to address community challenges and needs. (And have fun!) Not only will this be a valuable networking opportunity for your Youth leaders to connect with the surrounding tribes, but we would also like your feedback.
