KCLC-IMI 9th Annual Native Language Symposium

Welcome to the KCLC-IMI 9th Annual Native Language Symposium!

Date: Mon, Nov 17, 2025 & Tues, Nov 18, 2025

Location: Berna Facio Professional Development Center

Come join us for two days filled with celebration and learning as we further the movement toward educational sovereignty. Our gathering will provide resources for Tribes to exercise self-determination with regard to education and define achievement within Indigenous Education.

This event is a wonderful opportunity to connect with others who are doing the work of inspiring connection and belonging as we reclaim Indigenous Education, our Native languages and lifeways.

Throughout the day, there will be engaging talks, workshops, and interactive activities led by experts in the field of language reclamation, Indigenous Montessori and Dual immersion language models. Whether you are a language activist, educator, community member, or ally there is something for everyone at the symposium.

Don't miss out on this chance to connect with others around our Native languages and cultures. We look forward to seeing you there!
