Red Hawk Suicide Prevention Project

The Red Hawk Project, a component of the Robert Sundance Family Wellness Center, is a Youth Suicide Prevention and Early Intervention Project targeting American Indian and Alaska Native children, youth, and young adults (ages 10-24) in Los Angeles County. The mission of the Red Hawk Project is to support youth in the development of overall wellness that recognizes the resiliency and strength of the American Indian community. The goal of the project is to strengthen and develop culturally and linguistically appropriate youth suicide prevention and early intervention services for the American Indian community and be informed directly by consumers, parents, youth and providers within the Los Angeles American Indian community.

If you would like more information on the Red Hawk Project, or would like to participate in one of their community forums, please contact Dr. Cindy Jong at (213) 202-3970 ext. 7135.
