DescThe Native American Rights Fund (NARF) is the oldest and largest nonprofit national Indian rights organization in the country devoting all its efforts to defending and promoting the legal rights of Indian people on issues essential to their tribal sovereignty, their natural resources and their human rights. NARF believes in empowering individuals and communities whose rights, economic self-sufficiency and political participation have been systematically eroded or undermined. At its inception in 1970, NARF believed that the best hope for Indian survival and development rests with the maintenance of the tribe as an institution. The inherent sovereign powers of a tribe to hold land, to govern tribal members and to command the respect of other units of government are essential to an Indian nation concept. Throughout its history, NARF has held fast to this hope and through its work has insured that this concept has become a reality. NARF currently has approximately fifty ongoing cases and/or projects representing tribes, organizations and individuals. The volume and importance of the cases on NARF's docket illustrates the continuing need and demand for NARF's services. In an historic day for the Pamunkey Indian Tribe, in July 2015, after decades of research and participation in the federal acknowledgment regulatory process, the Assistant Secretary, Indian Affairs, U.S. Department of the Interior published a Final Determination acknowledging that the Tribe exists as an Indian tribe within the meaning of Federal law. In January 2016, the Pamunkey Indian Tribes Final Determination became effective. The Pamunkey Indian Tribe is the only tribe located in Virginia to have filed a fully documented recognition petition. Established no later than 1646, the Tribe's Reservation is located next to the Pamunkey River, and adjacent to King William County. The Reservation comprises approximately 1,200 acres and is the oldest inhabited Indian reservation in America. NARF has represented the Tribe in this effort since 1988. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the water supply for the Kickapoo Reservation in Kansas is in violation of the Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974. The Kickapoo people are unable to safely drink, bathe or cook with tap water. There is not enough water on the reservation to provide basic municipal services to the community and the Tribe is not even able to provide local schools with reliable, safe running water. The fire department cannot provide adequate fire protection due to the water shortage. In September 2016, the Tribe and the State executed the "Global Settlement Agreement" which includes a negotiated water right for the Tribe, including sufficient water for losses from storage due to seepage and evaporation, and all of the details for the States administration of the Tribes water right as the senior water right in the Delaware River watershed. The subsistence way of life is essential for the physical and cultural survival of Alaska Natives. As important as Native hunting and fishing rights are to Alaska Natives' physical, economic, traditional and cultural existence, the State of Alaska has been and continues to be reluctant to recognize the importance of the subsistence way of life. The Bering Sea Elders Group (BSEG) is an alliance of thirty-nine Yupik and Inupiaq villages that seeks to protect the sensitive ecosystem of the Bering Sea, the subsistence lifestyle, and the sustainable communities that depend on it. NARF has designed a comprehensive plan to help this group of Alaska Native villages in their efforts to protect the area and become more engaged in its management. Subsistence is the inherently sustainable Native philosophy of taking only what you need. There are often no roads and no stores in rural Alaska, and so no other group of people in the United States continues to be as intimately connected to the land and water and as dependent upon its vast natural resources as Alaskas indigenous peoples. NARF worked with BSEG on their efforts to protect the northern Bering Sea. In December 2016, this work resulted in President Barack Obama signing a historic Executive Order creating the Northern Bering Sea Climate Resilience Area. This was an incredible victory for NARFs clients. Yupik and Inupiaq tribal communities in the region have a deeply personal and cultural connection to the Northern Bering Sea and its rich marine resources. Their lives have been linked with the Northern Bering Sea for thousands of years. It is their highway, their grocery store, their way of life, and their childrens inheritance. Climate change is one of the most challenging issues facing the world today. Its effects on indigenous peoples throughout the world are acute and will only get worse. The effects are especially pronounced in Alaska where as many as 184 Alaska Native villages are threatened with removal. In December 2015, the Paris Agreement, the first ever universally binding accord on climate change, was adopted under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and achieves the universality which was missing from the last attempt at such an agreement the Kyoto Protocol. The International Indigenous Peoples Forum on Climate Change (IIPFCC or indigenous caucus), which NARF has participated in, has been involved in the UNFCCC process for years. It is clear that without the presence of Indigenous Peoples representatives, the Agreement and Decision would have had no reference to them. While the indigenous caucus did not achieve all that it sought, it did achieve some very significant references which can be built on going forward. The language in the Agreement states that when taking action on climate change, the rights of indigenous peoples must be acknowledged and that traditional knowledge, knowledge of indigenous peoples and local knowledge systems shall help guide the science used to address climate change. This language recognizes the need to strengthen knowledge, technologies, practices and efforts of local communities and indigenous peoples, related to addressing and responding to climate change, and establishes a platform for the exchange of experiences and sharing of best practices on mitigation and adaptation in a holistic and integrated manner. In NARFs Sacred Places Project, NARF has partnered with the National Congress of American Indians and the Morningstar Institute to help ensure that various federal agencies with jurisdiction over federal lands are held accountable to their obligation to protect sacred places and provide meaningful access to tribal people wishing to use those places for traditional purposes. These efforts will include providing best practices analysis, as well as raising awareness of issues and different approaches that can be used to protect sacred places held by the federal government. To the extent possible, analysis and practices learned from federal lands will also be compared for use on private and state-held lands. NARF provided input to the federal Departments of the Interior, Agriculture, Defense, and Energy, which signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Regarding Interagency Coordination and Collaboration for the Protection of Indian Sacred Sites to improve the protection of, and tribal access to, Indian sacred sites through enhanced and improved interdepartmental coordination and collobration. The MOU was followed with an "Action Plan" calling for establishment of working groups to perform various listed activities to facilitate better coordination and access. After over 20 years of work, NARF and the Tribal Educations Departments National Assembly (TEDNA) secured the first source of direct federal funding $2 million for tribal education departments ("TEDs") in the Labor, Health, and Human Services Fiscal Year 2012 and 2015 Appropriations Bills. The STEP program authorizes eligible TEDs to participate in a pilot project that allows TEDs to operate federal education programs in schools located on Indian reservations. The first STEP grants were awarded to the Nez Perce Tribe, the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Reservation, the Navajo Nation, and the Chickasaw Nation. The second round of grant awardees included the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, the Nez Perce Tribe, the Coeur d'Alene Tribe, and the Chickasaw Nation and Cheyenne and Arapaho Consortium. In Fiscal Year 2015, the U.S. Department of the- Interior's Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) announced its new direct funding for TEDs, the Sovereignty in Education (SIE) Program. Six tribes were awarded grants under this pilot program. For Fiscal Year 2016, Congress appropriated an additional $2 million for TEDs to be distributed by BIE via a competitive grant under its 1988 statutory authorization which has never before been funded. The following TEDs were provided BIE TED funds: Cohort 1: Hopi Tribe, Navajo Nation, Oglala Sioux Tribe, Pueblo of Acoma, Rosebud SioDesc

DescThe National Indian Law Library (NILL) is the only law library in the United States devoted to Indian law. The library serves both NARF and members of the public. Since it was started as a NARF project in 1972, NILL has collected nearly 9,000 resource materials that relate to federal Indian and tribal law. The Librarys holdings include the largest collection of tribal codes, ordinances and constitutions; legal pleadings from major Indian cases; and often hard to find reports and historical legal information. In addition to making its catalog and extensive collection available to the public, NILL provides free weekly Indian law updates via email and reference and research assistance. The professional library staff answers over 2,000 questions from the public each year. In addition, the Library has created and maintains a huge web site that provides access to thousands of full-text sources to help the researcher. The Access to Tribal Law Project continues to be an invaluable resource for researchers and practitioners in tribal law. In 2016 fiscal year, we received updates to 92 Constitutions or Codes from 43 tribes. We have established good relationships with a number of tribes who regularly send us updates to their laws as changes are made and we are working to develop relationships with others who have expressed interest. The Tribal Nation Pronunciation Guide is being developed for the NILL website. Appropriate pronunciations for all federally recognized tribes and Alaska Native Villages have been published for over 250 tribes in 2016 on the Tribal Law Gateway. We believe this unique guide will be a valuable resource for those who need to communicate with tribes and will allow people to address a tribe in a respectful manner.Desc
