Due to the novel Corona Virus pandemic, the Healthy Families Workshops have been temporarily altered to focus on Yuuyaraq/Yuuluaqallerkaq (Our way of life/Living well) and themes relevant to the current season. It has been shortened significantly and will be delivered through Skype Teleconferencing. This is a new way of delivering services so, please bear with us and do not hesitate to ask any questions. When it is determined safe to return to in-person workshops we will resume using the full Elluarrluteng Ilakutellriit cycle.

For the third year in a row, organizations are partnering to assist YK Delta villages in the removal of harmful electronic waste (discarded computers, television sets, old batteries, and more).
Unfortunately, this year we will not be serving food, in light of the COVID pandemic. Through consultation with each participating community, new safety measures include social distancing, face masks, and sanitization practices.
Last year 380lbs of hazardous waste was collected from Napakiak. 400lbs was collected from Tuluksak.
