Building Native Political Power In Colorado
Organizing urban and off-reservation Native people to shape policy and elections.
Mission
Nearly all Native people in Colorado live in its cities and towns, far from any reservation, and too often outside the decisions that shape our lives. We organize to change that.
-
We carry Native priorities to the state legislature and local government and push for elected representatives to carry and support those priorities.
-
We recruit and endorse Native and Native-allied candidates and help them get elected.
-
We register Native voters and work to arm and empower our communities with the information they need to vote.
-
We grow the next generation through youth leadership, advocacy, and candidate training.
Policy
We organize for the policy changes Native communities need.
Each Legislative session we track the bills that affect Native Coloradans, from health care to public lands, and we show up to move them.
