Native Roots Network's Mission: Advancing Indigenous-led Pathways for Just and Vibrant Communities (since 2004)

[Native Roots Network](https://www.nativerootsnetwork.org/) (NRN), an Indigenous-led nonprofit based in Wintu, Yana & Pit River territories, empowers Indigenous communities by promoting a shift from an extractive to a regenerative economy.  Our mission is to advance Indigenous-centered pathways for just and vibrant communities.  Focused on cultural revitalization for individual and community well-being, NRN delivers sustainable solutions to contemporary crises. We do this through organizing, activating, advocating, resisting, and building through community and multi-stakeholder connections, convenings, social justice movement, political education and development, and through traditional and contemporary arts. 

We are at a pivotal moment where we have the opportunity to bring back land into Native hands. We need your help to secure 1200 acres of land as part of our Indigenous community led land trust initiative called the ***Be•le Bo•m Initiative*** - Wintu language for "Forever shall it remain."

At the heart of our work is our "Acornomics" development framework—an Indigenous  value-led development framework symbolized by the mutual reciprocity between people and nature, epitomized by care taking of the oaks for acorn, a crucial food resource of Native Californian Peoples. This ancestral wisdom informs our workforce development and place-making initiatives, aiming to rejuvenate our roles as land stewards.

This land will provide a place for us to fully deploy our Acornomics framework and build out our Indigenous-led regenerative projects, including establishing a TEK (traditional ecological knowledge) land management team, localized fabrication production lab, solar micro-grid development installation crew,  and Native and healthy food gardens in conjunction with meaningful, culturally-relevant preservation and preparation.

Your donation will help us rematriate this land and get it back in Native hands. Donate today.
