Friend,
Wow ! We just wrapped up an incredible week-long national training -- bringing Native leaders, and grassroots organizers together from 12 states, 27 Tribes, and 27 different organizations.
Participants received training on tools to mobilize their communities, build coalitions, and effect change. We worked together to solve problems, engage in open discussions, and share knowledge grounded in inter-tribal cultural values of building community. And we left energized to continue our work for a better world.
One training attendee, June Shorthair of the Phoenix Indian Center, said :
“I recently attended the 2023 Native Organizers Alliance national Native community organizing training, and it was a fantastic experience!
The training was centered on Native issues and strategies that our organizations are currently working on. We emphasized our Native core values, Tribal community values, and personal experiences to refine our strategy. The environment was engaging, and I was able to strengthen my network and build relationships with other participants.
Looking forward to implementing our new strategies to build Native Power in 2024 and beyond !”
This was just the first of several local and national trainings the Native Organizers Alliance will hold this year grounded in traditional practices to build Native power.
