Project Venture is a sequential, year-long evidence based program that was originally developed for Native American communities by Native American people. PV is the first Native American program to be recognized as an evidence based practice by NREPP. PV combines service learning, experiential education, adventure/outdoor education, culture and tradition into a sequential, year long program where youth are empowered to become emotionally and physically healthy adults and members of their families, communities and schools.

PV is implemented in over 70 sites across the United States and Canada in a wide range of communities - both youth from all backgrounds.
