The Indian Law Resource Center, based in Helena, MT, is a non-profit law and advocacy organization that has been working tirelessly since 1978 to protect the legal rights, cultures, and environments of Indian nations and other indigenous peoples of the Americas. With a focus on issues such as ending violence against native women, environmental protection, human rights, land rights, law reform, native sovereignty, and self-governance, the center is dedicated to ensuring justice for indigenous peoples.
Through their various projects, including the Safe Women, Strong Nations initiative and the Indigenous Lands Initiative, the Indian Law Resource Center strives to empower indigenous communities and promote their rights to exist as distinct peoples, exercise self-determination, and be free from discrimination. With a commitment to preserving sacred sites and advocating for indigenous rights in climate policy, the center has been at the forefront of landmark decisions and initiatives that have had a significant impact on indigenous communities. Their work extends beyond the United States, with projects in countries like Guatemala, Brazil, and Rapa Nui Island.
