- In St. Paul, a center for Indigenous youth offers the healing power of community and culture
The Ain Dah Yung Center in Saint Paul supports Native American youth by offering a combination of free housing and care rooted in Native traditions like talking circles and smudging. The center serves over 3,000 youth annually through programs including emergency housing, and its work has shown success, with 100% of young people who stayed at the emergency shelter in 2024 remaining enrolled in school.
