The Yuchi Language Project is dedicated to keeping alive the rich heritage of the Yuchi people by creating new young speakers through breath-to-breath immersion methods with fluent Elders and children. Designed as a living language habitat to produce a new generation of Yuchi speakers, the Yuchi Language Project is seeing children once again speak Yuchi at home, school, church, and at Yuchi Ceremonial Grounds for the first time in nearly a century.
“When we speak our own language, we embody our Indigenous culture and worldview like our ancestors.”
