Defined: These are resources from Native American authors, Tribal governments, or other organizations Tribally owned or governed. They may also be resources from Non-Native organizations who have worked directly with Natives Americans to develop resources and/or as non-Native organizations employ Native Americans in a particular program or office who have worked or are currently employed to develop the posted resources.
NOTE: To share additional resources please email nbowman@nbowmanconsulting.com because these listings have been created by a collective and conscious group of committed Native and non-Native people over the years. We would like the cycle to continue and with your help, it can. Xwat Anushiik.
