SOBOBA TRIBAL TANF CONTINUES TO KEEP YOUTH CONNECTED
The Soboba Tribal TANF Program Prevention Resource Center (PRC) is currently running its Tribal Cháamcha Lówwivuktum (TCL) activities virtually and as take-home projects for its 12- to 19-year-old participants. February was dedicated to the topic of Online Safety Awareness. Program Specialist II Olga Gomez Munoz said the PRC staff takes many things into consideration when choosing TCL activities and topics. “We surveyed youth in the beginning of fall 2020 asking what they would be interested in participating in for our TCLs this year,” she said. “Based on their interests, we choose activities that we can adapt into either a take-home or virtual activity. We try to focus on topics that currently affect our youth demographic to promote awareness.” She said that PRC staff, which includes Regional Prevention Manager Harold Arres, actively participate in various webinars and trainings targeted at professionals working with youth and at-risk youth.
