A 9-week empowerment program focused on consent, boundaries, and personal safety
Join the ProgramBuilding confidence, boundaries, and personal safety—through a structured 9-week program
Bring This Program to Your CommunitySafety for Indigenous women and girls begins with a deep connection to who we are. We move away from fear-based models to focus on the reclamation of culture, the wisdom of our Elders, and the strength of our ancestors. When we know our worth, we walk differently in the world.
Our curriculum follows the Four Directions, addressing the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual self. From “Breathe with Drum” meditations to practical boundaries and the “Animal Imitation” movement games, we provide a trauma-informed space to heal, grow, and lead.
We believe in the power of looking out for one another. Our program introduces the “Girl Code”—10 essential, real-world safety strategies designed by Indigenous women for Indigenous women. If you go with a friend, you leave with a friend. No sister is ever left behind.
Volunteering with We Are Sacred has been a deeply grounding experience. Seeing the founders from Rise Up integrate traditional knowledge with modern safety strategies is incredible. It’s not just a program; it’s a space where Indigenous girls and women are reminded of their inherent power and the sacredness they’ve always carried. I am honored to witness this medicine in action
