We support a monthly, free online language class for members of Yesáh communities, and help to coordinate two immersive language gatherings per year, hosted by the College of William & Mary and Virginia Tech. 

If you are Yesáh and would like to join our classes or extend our language offerings to your community, please reach out by email: yesanechilanguageproject@gmail.com.

Our language exists in living relationship with our history, our present, and our future. It is a reflection and a guide to how and where we have lived, as well as how and where we live today. For that reason, effective language teaching must also incorporate cultural practices and worldviews. 

We provide a variety of opportunities throughout the year for members of Yesàh communities to learn more about our history, spirituality, and cultural practices.

We are working to create a permanent home for the Yesa:sahį Language Project and establish digital archives (images, recordings, etc.) for our linguistic revitalization work. Archives will be made available to Yesáh community members and approved researchers  working through collaboration with Federal and State tribal entities within our service range.

If you are a non-Yesáh researcher or collaborator seeking information on our research or archival work, please reach out through our Contact Form.
