Please join us for three days of events that celebrate Indigenous sexualities, genders and ways of being. Events include facilitated conversation with sisseton-wahpeton oyate academic and scholar of indigenous sexualities, Dr. Kim Tallbear, plus drag performances by Dene/Metis creative, T’áncháy Redvers, and local Dene creative, Ames Val, and more!

Dechinta is working to create an active alumni network, with a family feel, where Dechinta and alumni support each other in employment, education, life, and reporting Dechinta’s impact. In the upcoming months, Dechinta will be hosting alumni events and finding different ways to interact with our alumni virtually and in-person.
