Outbreak Spiritual Run Celebrates History of Northern Cheyenne

Conscious Alliance would like to honor and highlight some of the work groups outside of our organization are doing on the various reservations with which we work. This week we are looking at Yellow Bird, Inc., a native run non-profit that provides programming designed to preserve traditional lifestyles and languages, support social change that empowers native communities, protect mother earth, promote healthy lifestyles, and create cultural understanding and integrity. Each year, Yellow Bird, Inc. sponsors the Fort Robinson Outbreak Spiritual Run, an activity that allows Northern Cheyenne to reconnect with their history.
