Overview

Mission

We are dedicated to furthering diverse causes and the greater well-being of American Indians, Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians and First Nations people in the Chicago area. We seek to maximize effectiveness by creating a forum for fostering mutual aid, political support, positive public recognition, strategic alliances, collaborations and partnerships.

What it reported doing in 2025

Woods Fund Chicago - Native American Summit. This fund helped us achieve our goal to be heard in Springfield, IL. We are able to create a real infrastructure to be ahead of the issues, rent vans to Springfield and prep and educate our community properly. With this fund, we expect better representation for Native people in the legislative process, connecting with other Native people in other communities who have helped craft similar bills for Native causes, building leaders and activists for the next generation, and greater voice and fair chance for the Native people.
