I want to acknowledge John Lewis, Executive Director, Inner-Tribal Council

Some missing

three most important parts of a child's life: a child's family, a child 's
school, and a child's community.

We all know that boys and girls, especially
as they get to their teen years, face hazards. Every child has to make the choice between healthy
behaviors that lead to success and risky behaviors that can lead down a road
of bad outcomes.
Every child should have goals and aspirations.

BUSH: Thank you. Thanks, everybody. Drugs are a

Native American parents worry about their children using drugs or alcohol.
Young people who hear positive messages from their parents, their
grandparents , their aunts and uncles, are more likely to avoid risky
behaviors, and this is true in every culture . But in the Drug Court program, Amber

PRESS RELEASE KidSational Joins 'Eyes Across America' Program to Locate Abducted Children


Tribal youth are introduced to one of the most respected professions in our
nation, and they're given the opportunity to spend a lifetime of service to
others. The Responsible Fatherhood Initiative and
the Healthy Marriage Initiative are designed to keep families strong and
stable, so that whenever possible, children can grow up with two loving
parents in their home. After I visited a program in Detroit, a newspaper
reporter asked one of the little boys that I met what he thought of my visit ,
and I was moved when I read that he simply said, "I wish she could stay here. MST

Steve Ruff, President of KidSational , comments, "The 'Eyes Across America'
program is a direct response to the alarming frequency of child abductions
across the nation. The strong inter-
generational ties of Native American culture are a great benefit for children.
That's why many efforts to help tribal youth include cultural traditions .
Students are taking college-level courses in high school, and they're
participating in internships that give them a head start on their career. The conference will introduce a new assessment tool so that
communities can identify the challenges they face and the services that
already exist to meet them, and then community leaders can integrate federal
and local programs to create a seamless effort to help the youth and children
in their communities.

Factors that could
cause results to differ include, but are not limited to successful
performances of internal plans , the impact of competitors, and general
economic risks and uncertainties.
These challenges aren't limited to any one part of the country or to any
one segment of society. As Derwin said, the Red
Road represents the good path in life.
The Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community is finding solutions to the
problems that young people face on their reservation.

The "moral
imperative " of this potentially "life saving" project has inspired the
dedication of award winning music and production artists and management, as
well as celebrities and sponsors from stage, film, music, radio , sports and
government. When a child has a goal,
it means he has hope. A great education is the key to becoming a health care
worker, a doctor or a nurse. The Hoop of Learning motivates students to do
well in school, to graduate from high school and to go on to college. Law enforcement, health
care, education and housing authorities are working together to help children
at every stage of their development. The President has introduced several
initiatives that support local communities , including funding to provide
mentors for children who have a parent in prison, and a new proposal to reduce
gang violence and gang involvement. The time between childhood and
adulthood is all too short, as George and I can attest, and every moment in a
child's life is precious.

grandparents streetkids

KidSational , as well and other participating
organizations, wants to send a loud and clear message of awareness and
zero-tolerance when it comes to these heinous crimes.

Child Watch is dedicated to promoting awareness and prevention of child
abduction. Since the organization began offering investigative help to the
parents of abducted children, they've aided in the rescue and recovery of
175 kids . American Indian cultural practices and spiritual traditions are at
the heart of the program. The drum has called people
together! for centuries, and by introducing tribal youth who live in cities to
a tradition that has been practiced by their ancestors, Red Road gives young
people a sense of belonging and identity. He has something he wants to accomplish.

The AMBER Plan is a voluntary partnership between law-enforcement
agencies and broadcasters that activates an urgent bulletin in the most
serious child-abduction cases.

The information in this press release includes certain "forward-looking "
statements within the meaning of the Safe Harbor provisions of Federal
Securities Laws. Although the Company believes that
the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are
reasonable , it can give no assurance that such expectations or any of its
forward-looking statements will provide to be correct.
Thank you all very much.

MRS. Derwin, thank you very much for
your very excellent introduction and for telling us about your story.
The bonds of family and culture that exist on reservations may not be as
strong in urban environments. Amber's parents stayed involved in her treatment,
letting her know that she had their love and support.

The Phoenix Union School District and the Gate Way Community College are
incorporating Hoop of Learning programs, and they've seen encouraging results. They have plans to reduce substance
abuse, to provide group housing for young adults transitioning out of foster
care and back onto the reservation, to educate the community about family and
school violence and to provide counseling and recreational services for youth. She had to submit to regular drug
testing, and she had access to counseling to help her overcome her behavioral
and emotional problems.

Gangs and

Tribal youth face the same challenges that other kids in America face.
Earlier today, I visited the Native American Community Health Center,
which hosts the Red Road Youth Empowerment Project. Thank you for what you're already doing to help
the children in your communities.

kidsationalinc. Smoking and drinking may look
appealing to children when they see older kids doing it. They worry about violence, a fear that was heightened
by the recent tragedy at Red Lake High School in Minnesota.
A particular concern is that tribal youth who live in big cities like
Phoenix can become disconnected from their culture. She's working toward her GED so she can
improve her chances of providing a good life for herself and her children. This fall, we'll convene a White
House Conference on Helping America's Youth to discuss some of the best
practices to help children avoid risky behaviors and become responsible ,
healthy adults.
Helping America's Youth depends on partnerships within communities, and on
the individual commitment of every American.
