Videos & How-To Guides

This page is where learning comes to life! Sometimes it's easier to see and hear how something works than to just read about it. These short videos and how-to guides were made to walk families and educators step-by-step through common school and behavior support topics.

All videos are simple, respectful, and designed for families of the Havasuwa Baaja Tribe and beyond.
