STTARS, Indigenous Safe Housing Center is hosting a webinar that will discuss the history of boarding schools and child welfare at the intersection of land loss, gender-based violence, housing disparities, and housing insecurities and the ensuing lasting genocidal impacts on American Indians and Alaska Natives in the United States. In this session, our speakers will enhance our understanding of policy development and emphasize the critical need for accessible low-barrier housing policies for survivors of gender-based violence. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and interact during the webinar.
