Grant Overview

Oklahoma is home to 39 Native American tribes, with 13% of the state's population identifying as Native American. The state's Native American youth face unique challenges in education and career development, with lower graduation rates and higher dropout rates compared to their non-Native peers. The Native American Youth Mentorship program aims to address these challenges by providing role models from similar backgrounds to guide students in education and career choices.
