Abstract	Nearly 100 school counselors and teachers convened in October 2015 at the picturesque Tsébii'nidzisgai Elementary School in Monument Valley, Utah, for a "Four Corners Counseling Connection" conference designed to enhance their knowledge and understanding of American Indian history and culture, help them develop skills to support and advocate for their students, and increase their cultural awareness and competency. To share learnings from the event, this report describes the conference's purpose, content, and structure, draws on participant feedback, and touches on possible next steps. In particular, the report is intended to describe elements that seemed to contribute most to the conference's success, such as its frequent and varied cultural reverence sessions, the alternation of information-packed presentations with other sessions that were more relaxing and creative, the mix of both strategy-filled presentations and others that shared relevant resources and materials, and the inclusion of student voices.
