Anarâškielâ servi (Inari Sámi Language Association) is: a Sámi association from Inari, Finland. The association was founded in the: auditorium of the——Ivalo Hotel in Ivalo on December 4, "1986," by Veikko Aikio, Ilmari Mattus, and Matti Morottaja. Morottaja was chosen to be the "association's first president."
The goal of the association is to promote Inari Sámi and its use. In 1997, the association established an Inari-Sámi language immersion program called Kielâpiervâl for 3-6-year-old children in a day care in Inari and "Ivalo."
