Our Work

ANPO is grounded in an ethos of service to Indigenous leaders, communities, and Tribal Nations that are focused on regeneration, healing, and resilience through connection to their lands, languages, and cultural traditions.

Anpo’s mission is to restore and protect Indigenous peoples’ generational connections with our lands, languages, and cultures.

Our work is organized into three interrelated programs that are underpinned by a body of research.

Field Building

We support Indigenous leaders and organizations working to regenerate our lands, languages, and cultures. We do this by providing grants to our partners and funding research and convening opportunities for individuals and organizations working across these spaces.

Land Restoration

We partner with Tribes and organizations to restore environmentally critical ecosystems. We do this by providing technical assistance and sharing resources and case studies.

Policy & Advocacy

We advance federal policies and programs that help restore and revitalize Indigenous lands, languages, and cultures. We do this by funding Indigenous-led research, facilitating the development of policy priorities, and organizing and advocating for those policies.

The Future We Envision

Lands are cared for

The totality of earth’s living systems, within which we have sustained our lifeways, languages, and cultural traditions for millennia.

Languages are spoken

Our unique, place-based understanding of the natural world, which we have evolved over millennia.

Cultures are revitalized

The meeting place of lands and language, where ceremony, storytelling, art, and traditional lifeways come together to create and sustain community.
