In Indigenous cultures, stories are living entities. They connect us to our ancestors, our land, and each other. Through storytelling, we communicate the challenges we face, the strength of our communities, and the vision we hold for the future. Stories are not just told—they are experienced.
We believe in the power of these stories to drive change, shape policy, and inspire action.
We use storytelling in our work to highlight the lived experiences of American Indian and Alaska Native peoples, ensuring that the voices of our communities are heard in the halls of power.
Our Washington Report serves as a platform for sharing the latest news, updates, and policy changes that impact Indian Country. Through this report, we highlight the real-world effects of legislation, amplify the needs of our people, and bring the issues facing Tribal Nations to the forefront of national discourse.
On our blog, we share personal stories, case studies, and in-depth pieces that focus on the health, education, and sovereignty of Native communities. These stories are a reflection of our work and a call to action, pushing for change in a way that is both compelling and informative.
Just as our ancestors used stories to teach lessons, we continue to use storytelling to educate the world about the realities of life in Indian Country. Our stories are a bridge between cultures, helping others understand our struggles, our triumphs, and the ongoing journey toward healing and self-determination.
Through every report, blog post, podcast episode, and shared experience, we continue to teach—just as our ancestors did, with pride, power, and purpose.
