Meet Shari Russell, director of NAIITS
“NAIITS, for me, isn't just an education. It's community. It's family. It's embraced my entire life and has been transformational, even in my calling as a minister,” Shari said.
NAIITS’ academic degrees offer open-ended opportunities for the global Indigenous community to be part of a flexible program of learning.
NAIITS symposiums are themselves learning communities, unique in their blend of academic and practitioner teaching.
NAIITS has carefully selected partners who are clearly Jesus-focused in their worldview and mission, and who respect Indigenous leadership.
We invite you to participate with Indigenous leaders from around the world and become part of a diverse group of highly dedicated visionaries.
