(From The Shiwi
Messenger - 4/30/99)
A group of young people in Zuni hopes to make a difference
in many others' lives and their own. The Natural Helpers are a cross section of
students and school adults selected from the Zuni Middle School. The Natural Helpers program
is designed to provide services to youth who have problems in their lives: they strive
to assist such youth in developing the capability to choose positive ways to take care of
themselves. They also focus on projects they feel are needed to be undertaken in the
community. The Natural Helpers and professional counselors recently held a three
day retreat at The Inn At Halona during which they developed tighter
bonds and committed themselves to new community projects. Governor Malcolm Bowekaty
and members of the Zuni Tribal Council attended sessions and encouraged the Natural
Helpers to follow "business plans" in bringing their projects into
realities, and they pledged to assist the Natural Helpers in their endeavors. |

This feature is a part of a series of community information
pages which are dedicated to "Special Guests" of The Inn At Halona
whose very presence in Zuni has been a "Special Gift" to our
community.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, they illustrate that all our Guests,
traveling to Zuni for "work, meeting or visit" are people of high caliber.
