Despite California being home to the largest population of AI/ANs in the United States, reports often do not provide adequate data for AI/ANs. When AIANs are not accurately represented in data, we are institutionally erased.
While gaps in information remain, We the Resilient provides a discussion point for many socioeconomic factors that impact the health and wellness of AI/ANs in California.
Quantitative data is only one aspect of understanding AI/ANs in California; another critical piece is understanding AI/AN communities themselves, how we define power, and what is most important for us to build strong futures. This report carefully weaves together quantitative and qualitative data to create a more robust snapshot of AI/ANs in California.
Beyond our core We the Resilient report, we also publish additional reports and data resources. These publications are designed to inform policymakers, community leaders, and the public about the lived experiences, challenges, and strengths of Native communities.
