12th Annual Chief Atahm School
Aboriginal Language Conference
February 24th & 25th
Coast Kamloops Conference Centre

Weytkp, xwexweytep!

Welcome everyone to our 12th annual language conference, Predictions of Indigenous Language Regeneration. This year has witnessed many new language initiatives. There is a new energy and urgency to indigenous language revitalization in our communities.

2012 is a special year. When we combine our collective wills and language dreams, a prediction of language regeneration is possible.

This year's conference workshops and presentations will provide skills and methods to meet the challenge of language teaching. Special guests have been invited to share their language program success. We welcome returning participants and new conference visitors.

Let's unite in our shared purpose for languagesurvival. We invite participants to create a network of language warriors. Speak your language. It is beautiful.
