Organization

New Mexico’s Social Justice and Equity Institute is led by a Native-led grassroots nonprofit organization, focusing on addressing critical issues such as food security, environmental justice, and Indigenous and social justice concerns. The organization’s mission is to tackle systemic problems that perpetuate environmental and health disparities stemming from institutional racism and multi-generational trauma. We acknowledge that we operate on Dine’, Zuni, and Acoma lands. The Institute’s efforts are aimed at creating positive change in these areas, promoting equity, and improving the well-being of communities in the region. Through advocacy and community-driven efforts, we strive for equity, working towards a more just and inclusive society for everyone.
