The University of Utah Pow Wow is an opportunity for tribal members throughout the Intermountain West to meet and honor the cultural and religious practices of their communities. Pow Wow is planned in partnership with Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion; the American Indian Resource Center; the University of Utah’s Inter-Tribal Student Association; and the Urban Indian Center of Salt Lake. Pow Wow 2023 is elevated and sponsored by Sacred Circle Healthcare and other community partners
For the 51st Anniversary, the Pow Wow committee identified the necessity to highlight Indigenous youth as their communities address challenges around the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) and those impacted by Indigenous boarding schools with Orange Shirt Day. As they navigate their past, present, and future, it is imperative to elevate Indigenous youth as they face and overcome obstacles.
