SCO Youth Healing and Wellness Contest: Enter by May 31, 2023

May 15, 2023

What does healing and wellness mean to you?

The Southern Chiefs’ Organization (SCO) is inviting youth from SCO Nations ages 15 to 30 to take part in a contest to promote a path to healing and wellness for our young people.

Our Mobile Crisis Response Team is holding a contest for youth to share your thoughts on what healing and wellness means to you.

Does your mental wellness involve your culture, your language, or art? Do you find healing through your sport or your community?

SCO will use your art and video responses to promote well-being to our Nations!

Contest details:

There are two categories for this contest:

  1. Art
  2. Videos

You can enter each category once.

Art pieces can be original drawings, paintings, sculptures, or designs using other media such as hide or beading.

Videos should be no longer than 3 minutes long.

Our contest is not sponsored by any social media entity.

Things to consider:

A panel of judges will review entries for creativity, knowledge, insight, originality, and artistic flair.

We will also be looking for cultural, land-based, and educational content.

To enter, post your art piece or video on social media, along with 50 to 150 words telling us about your submission.
