Our organization was founded by Native Women from nine tribes within San Diego County. We now have over 22 individual members from our local tribal communities in Southern California encompassing 34 Tribal Nations. Each board member volunteers their time on the board and work on policy changes to enhance our Tribes and ensure victim safety.
