**As of April 2019, Karihwanoron has since been accepted to receive core funding for our unique Language and Cultural program.
Our struggle continues; Karihwanoron currently resides in a rental home and is need to solidify a location within our community and to raise funds to build a new home. The government will not support infrastructure funds for Karihwanoron at this time.
SUPPORT THE CHILDREN
​Return of the Language
​
On September 23, 1988, mothers from the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawà:ke decided that it was necessary to establish a Mohawk immersion program to serve the greater community in an effort to revitalize the language.
Their vision was to create a home-like environment for children so that they could live the language immersed in the philosophy of the Kanien'kehá:ka.
We are pleased to share that we are now in our 32nd year!
