Elder Support Network

LLTC is committed to promoting and focusing on the traditional Anishinaabeg use of healing and medicines on campus. We have a support elder on campus Mondays throughout the semester.

Talking Circles

Mino-ayaawigamig sponsors a weekly Talking Circle led by Leech Lake elder Nancy Kingbird on Wednesdays, 12:00pm – 2:00pm. Students and Community members are encouraged to come share a meal and then talk in a safe, confident environment about school, parenting, grief, addictions, or anything you need guidance on. Feel free to bring a dish to share and/or feast kit if you have one. This helps cut down on waste.
