In these challenging times, it is important that we stay connected to one another, and share our love and care for each other; or take the time to listen to ourselves and take in love and care for our own healing. Please join us for our new weekly tradition as we continue to gather in spirit with good thoughts, meditation, prayer, traditional ceremony, song and visions of healing for the world – whatever your belief.
We hope you will join us EVERY FRIDAY at 5:00 pm Eastern/ 4:00 pm Central/ 3:00 pm Mountain/ 2:00 pm Pacific/ 1:00 pm Alaska/ 11:00 am Hawaii time, as we all come together - from our homes or a quiet place with physical distance from others - to share 20 minutes in prayer, good thoughts and unity of spirit.
Let us join together to #ShareHealing to send thoughts of healing and health during this uneasy and fearful time. Please share, if it is appropriate, what you are doing to pray, meditate, or share healing thoughts on social media by posting with #ShareHealing and by tagging us on:

THE LONGEST SERVING NON-PROFIT IN INDIAN COUNTRY.
The Association on American Indian Affairs is the oldest non-profit serving Indian Country protecting sovereignty, preserving culture, educating youth and building capacity. The Association was formed in 1922 to change the destructive path of federal policy from assimilation, termination and allotment, to sovereignty, self-determination and self-sufficiency. Throughout its 97-year history, the Association has provided national advocacy on watershed issues that support sovereignty and culture, while working at a grassroots level with Tribes to support the implementation of programs that affect real lives on the ground.
VISIONThe vision of the Association is to create a world where diverse Native American cultures and values are lived, protected and respected.

MISSIONThe mission of the Association is to lead the grassroots fight to protect Native American Cultural Sovereignty.

GOALSThe Association's goals are to protect sovereignty, preserve culture, educate youth and build capacity.

Currently, the Association is engaged in a comprehensive strategic planning process to prepare the organization for its next 100 years. By building internal capacity and efficient infrastructure around our cultural values, the Association will achieve its vision to ensure “A world where Native American cultures and values are lived, protected and respected.”
