Antonia Gonzales from National Native News, producer Emily Schwing, Jill Fratis from our flagship station KNBA, and the Alaska Desk’s Alena Naiden bring us all the action from the 2025 Native Youth Olympic (NYO) Games. This program provides up-close interviews and discussions with NYO participants, leaders, and culture bearers.

This final of three episodes shares athlete achievements and record-breaking moments, while coaches and community leaders reflect on the games’ profound impact on youth engagement, academic success, cultural pride, and the promotion of healthy, positive lifestyles.
