From the PUEBLO to the REZ

Native Americans in Higher Education and Mentorship - Nativos en la Educacion Superior y Mentoria (NAHEM)

NAHEM is a national 501(c) organization proudly owned and operated by Native women, with employees comprised exclusively of Indigenous peoples. We envision a future where Indigenous peoples across North America, South America, and Oceania are empowered through education, mentorship, and cultural sustainability.

Our woman-led organization bridges Indigenous communities across continents, fostering collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and solidarity in the pursuit of academic and professional success. Our vision is to create a world where Indigenous students and leaders thrive in higher education and professional settings, preserve and revitalize their languages and traditions, and drive sustainable development within their communities.

Through intergenerational learning, cross-cultural exchanges, and collective advocacy, we uplift Indigenous voices, strengthen self-determination, and ensure that Indigenous knowledge systems and cultural legacies endure for generations to come. For upcoming events check out our resource center.
