NDN Collective was founded in the He Sapa (Black Hills) in Rapid City, South Dakota. Therefore, all of our organizing, policy advocacy, and movement-building has a hyperlocal focus. Our core issue areas are all aligned with a LANDBACK agenda and incorporate strategies for local, state, and federal policy change.

In addition to our four campaigns and other issue areas, we prioritize affinity group deployments where we can deploy our team to support relatives within the movement that may be fighting causes outside of our core areas of focus.
