The Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women (CSVANW) advances a legislative agenda grounded in advocacy, sovereignty, and the lived experiences of Native survivors. Our policy work is guided by a commitment to safety, justice, and culturally responsive systems that honor Tribal communities. We support legislation that strengthens protections for Native women and families, increases access to survivor-centered services, and ensures accountability across federal, state, and Tribal systems. Through collaboration, storytelling, and community leadership, CSVANW works to create lasting, systemic change that uplifts and protects our relatives.
This work is not limited to policymakers; community members play a vital role in advocacy and systems change.
