Nativewomanshare is an Indigenous Sovereignty movement and community-building project guided by the Takelma tribe and serving Inter-Tribal women, youth, and Two-Spirits of rural Oregon. They empower Indigenous women, youth and Two-Spirits in Southern Oregon to unite, heal and reclaim pride; to strengthen networks for mutual aid in Indigenous community; and to fight racism, sexism and oppression against Native women and Two-Spirits through public education, community support, healing, and visible representation.
The Mobilize Power Fund (August 2022) supported mutual aid for/by 2SQTBIPOC in response to COVID-19, heat and wildfire relief, and the local housing crises in Southern Oregon.
The Own Our Power Fund (2023-2025) is providing a two-year grant to support Nativewomanshare’s new leadership training and coaching for Takelma women and youth inner-circle leaders in administration, finance and financial sovereignty, and community building as they continue to re-matriate their land in Grants Pass, OR.
