Exploring Partnerships and New Opportunities for Achieving Impact in Native Communities


NeighborWorks America wanted to better understand the Native housing and community development landscape and identify ways in which to leverage its strengths to achieve long-term impact in advancing housing and economic conditions for Native people.

NeighborWorks' strategy report summarizes this engagement process and three core recommendations for developing a new corporate Native strategy: 
  1. Cultivate cultural competence and a respectful understanding of sovereignty within NeighborWorks America.
  2. Integrate Native perspectives into NeighborWorks' and NeighborWorks organizations' management decisions through senior staffing, boards and advisory groups.
  3. Institutionalize a permanent Native Initiative within NeighborWorks America.
