Update on NAPLP and INSPIRE Programs
Dear Friends:
Our Summer 2021 Native American Political Leadership Program (NAPLP) cohort has concluded and I want to thank Dr. Elizabeth Rule, Mackenzie Neal, our wonderful students, and of course AT&T, plus many of you for making it a success.
The AT&T Center for Indigenous Politics and Policy is a university-based research center advancing Indigenous self-governance through research, tribal advocacy, and academic programming for Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian students. We're here to partner with tribal leaders, policymakers, and allies to amplify Indigenous voices and take advantage of every opportunity to build sustainable solutions for Indian Country.
