Native American Truth & Healing Convening

Please join us on Monday, April 11th, from 10:00 – 11:30 AM PT for Native American Truth and Healing, a convening designed in partnership with the Office of Governor Gavin Newsom, the Office of the Tribal Advisor, Philanthropy California, and the Decolonizing Wealth Project.

In this discussion, the Office of the Tribal Advisor will provide a deeper look into California Native history. This session will also include a briefing on the California Truth and Healing Council, and funders will learn more about the relationship between philanthropy and tribal communities – namely, how they can support the California Truth and Healing Council.

The Decolonizing Wealth Project will also share opportunities to support their California Truth and Healing Council Philanthropic Fund, which was launched on Indigenous Peoples’ Day 2021. This fund will support philanthropic engagement, narrative change and digital storytelling, and healing and wellness for the Council.

Target Audience

This program is open to members of Catalyst, Northern California Grantmakers, and Southern California Grantmakers and eligible non-members.
