Healthy Native North Carolinians Network

Triangle Native American Society is one of thirteen community partners funded through the Healthy Native North Carolinians Network (HNNC). The HNNC facilitates sustainable community changes around healthy eating and active living within North Carolina’s tribes and urban Indian organizations by leveraging common goals and resources. Since 2011, HNNC has created a successful model for developing organizational capacity, tribal self-determination, and intertribal collaborations.

Title VI Indian Education Program

Each Title VI Indian Education program supports schools by providing opportunities for Native students to meet and exceed academic and cultural standards. Each program coordinator seeks to assist families with navigating schools across Wake and Johnston counties.

Triangle Native American Society Scholarship

The primary focus of the program is to provide financial assistance to those students who can demonstrate a commitment to Native American people and opportunities for American Indians to better their lives through academic achievement and community involvement.

Community Garden

Our community garden was created with funding from the Health Native North Carolinians grant, and through a partnership with the Wake County Indian Education Program. It is maintained yearly by our community volunteers. If you’re interested in learning more about the garden, or volunteering to help us out please reach out!
