The Native Women's Collective
The Native Women's Collective is a grassroots nonprofit organization that supports the continued growth of Native American arts, culture, leadership and community development through public education, workshops, exhibits, research, cultural preservation projects, programs and technical assistance. The collective works to advance emerging and established artists and creative professionals by providing a network and forum for capacity building that centers social & environmental justice.
Sovereign Bodies Institute (SBI) builds on Indigenous traditions of data gathering and knowledge transfer to create, disseminate, and put into action research on gender and sexual violence against Indigenous people.
As part of SBI's commitment to Indigenous research practices, we envision research as part of a broader system of care for our people. We understand research as a flowing relationship, wherein our stories and data are informed by lived experiences as families, survivors, and advocates; our people are empowered to be our own experts on the violence we experience and the healing we create; and the stories and data we hold are transformed into meaningful action to create and maintain effective, culturally relevant systems of care.
