The CRNA Elders &
Youth Conference
Is a transformative event designed to empower Ahtna elders and youth by creating a supportive, culturally rich environment for fostering multi-generational connections. This conference is more than just an event; it is a cultural camp where attendees learn emergency preparedness, traditional practices, and the latest techniques for living in rural Alaska.
By participating, you will gain historical knowledge, build lasting relationships, and contribute to the preservation of our cultural heritage.
