What is A-CHILL?
The Alaska Care and Husbandry Instruction for Lifelong Living (A-CHILL) program is a 4-year Indian Education Demonstration project that brings together Alaska Gateway and Yukon-Koyukuk School Districts and their communities.
Together, the schools and their local community members will collaboratively engage students in grades 6-12 to be inspired and learn valuable knowledge and skills related to the sciences, math, language arts, and college & career readiness.
This project builds on and expands the Frank Attla Youth & Sled Dog Care-Mushing Program, which has been piloted in Huslia for multiple years.
