On May 2, the Arizona Department of Education (ADE) and the West Comprehensive Center (WCC) at WestEd facilitated a half-day pre-conference for tribal leaders and educators participating in the 2016 Southwest Pathways Conference (which was held May 2-4). The gathering raised awareness about critical education, health, and well-being issues affecting Native American youth and families.

Workshop topics encompassed culturally inclusive practices, family engagement, health and well-being, substance abuse prevention, the Every Student Succeeds Act, and dropout prevention. This document contains summaries of the plenary sessions and workshops.
