TRIBAL COALITION PROJECT

Mending the Sacred Hoop Coalition is a statewide Tribal Domestic Violence Coalition serving all state and federally-recognized tribal communities as well as rural and urban programs in the state of Minnesota. Our mission is to eliminate violence against Native women and its effects by promoting justice and the restoration of the traditional status of Indigenous women. The Coalition exists to build the capacity of survivors, advocates, tribal and urban Native organizations, and all those working across the state of Minnesota to end violence against Native women. Our vision is to promote the safety, sovereignty, and sacred status of Native women by raising the voices of American Indian/Alaska Native women on the issue of domestic violence tribally and statewide.
