Learn + Take Action
The Nevada City Rancheria Nisenan Tribe and CHIRP invite the community to move beyond simply acknowledging the Tribe and its enduring connection to these Lands, and into concrete, sustained action to support Tribal stability and soverignty.
By Learning about the history of Tribe, Supporting CHIRP through financial donations and volunteering, and Taking Action to spread visibility of the Tribe and their fight for federal recognition, our allies and advocates contribute to the healing of historic injustices, Indigenous land rematriation, and Cultural revitalization of the NCR Nisenan People.
