The way we do our work matters
What we’re committed to and bring to every project:
Indigenous Knowledge First
We help build Indigenous-centered solutions from the ground up. Our work is guided by the teachings of the land, our Elders, and the responsibility to think for the next seven generations.
Strength-Based, No Deficit Thinking
We don’t prioritize models that focus on deficits. Indigenous communities are already powerful. We leverage strengths, amplify what’s working, and build from there.
We’re Flexible, Understanding the Reality of Day-to-Day Life
We meet communities where they’re at and support with capacity building and organizational mentorship. We adapt strategies in real-time to meet evolving needs while keeping the focus on real, measurable impact.
Storytelling is Strategy
Numbers matter, but stories create change. We weave Indigenous narratives with hard data to ensure Indigenous voices aren’t just included, but centered.
