Native American Community
Development Institute
Helping Native people create the future they envision.
NACDI's work is founded on the belief that all American Indian people have a place, purpose, and a future strengthened by sustainable asset-based community development. Since 2007, NACDI's work facilitates systems change through our integrated pathways of Community Engagement, Community Organizing, Community Development, and Indigenous Arts and Culture.
Listen to our staff talk about NACDI and what it means to them and their community.

Friends of the Falls
NACDI is working in partnership with The Falls, to build authentic, long-term relationships with First Nations people and shaping the future of the Upper Lock at Owámniyomni.
