COMMUNITY CARE
The Garden of Ancestral Love
By prioritizing Indigenous perspectives and cultural teachings in our approach to health and well-being, this center serves as our source of strength.
The Garden of Ancestral Love serves as a sanctuary for care, healing, and the practice of Indigenous Resurgence, offering a place for ceremony and the cultivation of deep, lasting relationships based on mutual respect and understanding. In this garden, we are devoted to safeguarding the well-being and joy of Indigenous communities.

Future Program: Knowledge as Wealth-building for Future Generations
IHEI is developing a fellowship program to address the root causes of systemic oppression and economic injustice within learning spaces.
Grounded in Indigenous Resurgence, our program will offer Indigenous youth aged 18-25 a pathway toward healing, knowledge-building, and leadership development. This fellowship will teach data justice, research methodologies, and decolonial tools to empower the next generation to lead systemic change, advocate for Indigenous sovereignty, and build a resilient future for their communities.
Interested in supporting the development of this fellowship program?
Strategies for Self-Determination
IHEI’s strategies are developed and defined in collaboration with Indigenous knowledge-keepers, public health experts, and community members to develop programs that are deeply rooted in Indigenous values and perspectives.
