Tribal Resource Tool

American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/AN) have the highest crime victimization rates in the nation but often have difficulty connecting with the services that exist to help them recover from crime and abuse. The Tribal Resource Tool  provides information on victim services via its searchable database – all you have to do is visit the website. The tool includes services for:

  • All ages of AI/AN survivors and victims
  • All forms of victimization
  • All locations (on or off reservations, in areas that are remote, rural, urban, or suburban)
  • All needs of victims, including justice, safety, healing, and support

First Nations' club aims to promote unity among various Native American /Alaska Native students at EvCC and encourage effort in the attainment of their goals; to enrich each members knowledge of Native American/Alaskan Native culture and to provide social, educational, and other support.
