South Dakota Positive Indian Parenting (PIP) Community Created for trainers by a trainer. Please take the survey below to share content, experiences, and tools with the PIP trainer community. You will also have access to our shared drive with useful tools for your next Parent Training group.v

PIP is an 8 week course developed to honor and revitalize Indigenous parenting traditions that were disrupted by historical trauma, such as boarding schools and colonization. The trainer’s role is to create a respectful learning space, support participants’ cultural connections, and facilitate—not lead—the sharing of Indigenous knowledge. Sensitivity, humility, and collaboration with local Native communities are essential when guiding this program.
