For the past 21 years, Native Like Water (NLW) has been committed to re-engaging the tribal youth of Southern California and beyond with the ancestral relationship that was once an everyday part of coastal indigenous lifeways. NLW programs seek to improve physical, emotional, and spiritual health of indigenous youth through the implementation of water recreation, marine science education and habitat restoration activity. By re-engaging indigenous youth in coastal re-creation, literal creation and reimagining of modern indigenous practices, Native Like Water is implementing revolutionary tactics in counteracting the effects of climate change and to foster health promoting behaviors which will continue for generations to come. Education in current and traditional scientific knowledge, ocean skills and habitat restoration efforts are at the backbone of all activity.
