On a winter morning in 1990, Senator Byron Dorgan of North Dakota picked up the Bismarck Tribune. On the front page, a small girl gazed into the distance, shedding a tear. The headline: "Foster home children beaten--and nobody's helping". Dorgan, who had been working with American Indian tribes to secure resources, was distressed. He flew to the Standing Rock Indian Reservation to meet with five-year-old Tamara and her grandfather. They became friends. Then she disappeared. And he would search for her for decades until they finally found each other again. This book is her story, from childhood to the present, but it's also the story of a people and a nation. More than one in three American Indian/Alaskan Native children live in poverty. AI/AN children are disproportionately in foster care and awaiting adoption. Suicide among AI/AN youth ages 15 to 24 is 2.5 times the national rate. How have we allowed this to happen? As distressing a situation as it is, this is also a story of hope and resilience. Dorgan, who founded the Center for Native American Youth at the Aspen Institute, has worked tirelessly to bring Native youth voices to the forefront of policy discussions, engage Native youth in leadership and advocacy, and secure and share resources for Native youth. Readers will fall in love with this heartbreaking story, but end the book knowing what can be done and what they can do"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Indian youth $z United States $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $x Social conditions $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Indians, Treatment of $z United States. 941 $a 15 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240710050337.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012020310.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909060051.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20210701010720.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20200829015012.0 952 $l VMPC334 $d 20200707010544.0 952 $l XSPE157 $d 20200609014418.0 952 $l XAPE737 $d 20200609014234.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200529021315.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20200407022255.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200303023524.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20200225011546.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20200225011345.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20191231011557.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20191127010340.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9C509F9810E311EAB74B044797128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
