The mission of the Title VI Umóⁿhoⁿ Language and Culture Center is:
to revive Umóⁿhoⁿ language use by the children and people of our community by creating language experiences that allow our children to learn from our Elders and Culture Teachers;
to nurture the use of spoken Umóⁿhoⁿ through the teaching of cultural values and beliefs of our people;
to develop “hands-on” materials for life-experience language acquisition;
to use research-based methods of language instruction;
to develop and train Umóⁿhoⁿ speakers to teach others;
to develop speakers from a community of “Active Listeners” with the intent they become Teacher / Learners;
to promote the community-wide use of the existing standardized orthography (writing system); and
to secure the status of Umóⁿhoⁿ Language as a “World Language” at the Nebraska Department of Education.
Our site is in development. The following areas have not yet been added:
