The Indigenous Justice Circle addresses the unique stressors and risks faced by Native American girls, young women, and 2SLGBTQ+ at the intersection of race, gender, age, culture, and socio-economic status. We do this by (1) Addressing MMIWG by reducing the risks of walking between the Native and non-Native worlds. (2) Addressing invisibility, mistrust, racial misunderstanding through early life political and civic participation. (3) Strengthening Indigenous girls’ systems participation, access and influence by involving them in health structure transformation. (4) Providing trauma healing and cultural-spiritual support for justice-involved Native youth. (5) Acknowledging and addressing inter-generational trauma through culturally competent approaches.
