Building the capacity of Native Nations and Indigenous Peoples to protect sacred lands, waters, and cultures
About us
Sacred Places Institute for Indigenous Peoples (SPI) is located on the southern California coast in the unceded ancestral homelands of the Tongva people. Our mission is to build the capacity of Native Nations and Indigenous Peoples throughout California, the United States, and around the world to protect sacred lands, waters, and cultures. Our long-term goal is to create paradigm shifts that support environmentally and socially just systems and assure the continuation of Indigenous cultures and people. SPI began in 2012 to provide in-person and virtual spaces for Native Nations and Indigenous People to think and strategically plan about how best to protect their sacred sites as well as advance the environmental justice priorities of tribal communities. As one of very few California Native-led and completely BIPOC-staffed organizations in California working on these issues, Sacred Places Institute represents an unique, necessary voice within the environmental and ocean conservation movements.
