Sister Snake Scholarship Program

Supporting Indigenous, Black, and Brown leadership in health justice movements.


The seed of this scholarship program was planted by Amber Snake, our truly missed Dine/Ho-chunk sister, shortly before she crossed over to join the ancestors.  This scholarship program is an effort to adjust some of the social disparities we face in the world by removing some of the barriers that limit Indigenous participation in important inter-generational healing work and community health care projects.  

The Sister Snake Scholarship Program aims to provide opportunities to re-cultivate or nourish care giving skills and fund opportunities for Indigenous people who are providing care (or interested in providing care) within their communities.  

Funds raised for the Sister Snake Scholarship Program have been donated to support Indigenous self-organization in relation to healthcare, and has funded travel expenses for Indigenous people to access herbal educational offerings around Turtle Island.

We are also accepting donations of long-distance learning courses and books to add to the scholarship program.  To contribute to the Sister Snake Scholarship Program, or to find out more information about the program please contact us at sistersnakescholarship@gmail.com

with paypal, add a note: "Sister Snake Scholarship" when donating.
