Saponi Stickball
Increasingly, younger generations of Native American’s
are abandoning traditions -opportunities for a close connection to the earth –
with a resultant increase in disease and impaired health states. Less than 100 years ago, autoimmune illnesses were
almost unheard of among native American communities. Ceremonies play an
important role in the overall wellbeing of traditional Native American people
but the healing potential of this practice is typically unappreciated by
allopathic health providers. By bringing
Lacrosse/Stickball back to the community, Support Our Arthritic Kids Inc., are
focused on making sure youth stay active and healthy– making sure we offer
opportunities to empower youth to excel in school, eating healthy, become good
citizens and leading productive lives.
