Our mission is to provide quality support services to Native and rural students which promotes their scholastic achievement, student retention, and personal success.  We foster academic excellence, career development, leadership skills, personal growth, college-transitioning, a sense of belonging, and the attainment of one's scholastic and life goals.

Our Center provides a safe, affirming space on campus. It is a gathering place where students can find support, access resources, connect with community representatives, study with classmates, meet new friends, and interact with people who share similar experiences as indigenous peoples. We target the unique needs of Native students by:

• Educational Outreach
