Where the work lives.

Four connected efforts, one circle. From Land Back housing to food sovereignty to Two-Spirit visibility, every project is led by and accountable to the Native community it serves.

Barbie's Village

Featured · Housing · Land Back

A tiny-home village for six to ten Native families with an early-childhood program, on land returned to our community in 2024. Named in memory of Atwai Barbie Jackson Shields.

Community members gather at round tables in the renovated Barbie’s Village hall, with its curved wood wall.

2-Spirit Survivance

Visibility

Celebrating Indigequeer joy and visibility across Portland. With Multnomah County and TriMet, our Two-Spirit relatives created billboards and transit art honoring the sacred place Two-Spirit people have always held in our nations.

Traditional Foods

Food Sovereignty

Reconnecting families to the land through community harvests, traditional foods, and food boxes that nourish both body and culture.

This work belongs to all of us.

Show up, lend a hand, or help fund what comes next. There is a place for you in this circle.
