About this Event
The Northwest Native Chamber will host a luncheon focused on advancing Native-centered childcare, featuring a keynote from Chenoa Landry (Puyallup) of Future Generations Collaborative, who will share her perspective on building healthy, accessible, and culturally specific child care systems. Her insights will encompass their child care infrastructure grant and the broader vision for the space at Barbie's Village.
Attendees will also hear from State Accident Insurance Fund Corporation (SAIF,) a not-for-profit workers’ compensation insurance organization, about workplace benefits and opportunities that support employers and workforce wellbeing. This will be followed by remarks from NWNC’s Tribal Technical Assistance Specialist, MyKel Johnson (Nez Perce), on the role of technical assistance.
The event will highlight Future Generations Collaborative as a growing hub for early childhood programming, public health, and community gatherings, alongside ongoing landback efforts, and will conclude with dedicated time for networking and connection among attendees.
