100 Years of Advocacy


Picture

In 2022, the Association turned 100 years old! Over the last century of service in Native Country, we have changed the course of federal Indian law and policy away from termination and genocide towards sovereignty, self-determination and healing. Help us move forward even stronger into our next 100 years!
