Sinipok is an annual, adult Chamoru language immersion program that provides tools, instruction and resources to empower participants to give life to our heritage language.
The program provides participants with the space, time, and intentional care needed to create community among like-minded learners, and to embrace their roles in the revitalization of the Chamoru language.
Dångkolo na si Yu’os ma’åse’ to our 2026 cohort!
Our fifth cohort completed their immersion on Guåhan this past summer. It was an incredibly special experience to witness their growth in our language over the course of our two weeks together. Biba Prugråman Sinipok! Biba Chamoru!
If you are interested in learning more about our immersion program, contact us today at info@sinipok.org.

Kao un tungo’?
Did you know that 80% of Chamoru people today do not know their native language?
With the overwhelming majority of our native speakers over the age of 60, it is possible to experience a dramatic loss of spoken Chamoru by 2050.
