"Empowering Native Children and Preserving Tribal Sovereignty: Join the California Tribal Families Coalition" Nestled in the heart of California, the California Tribal Families Coalition (CTFC) stands as a beacon of hope and advocacy for tribal children and their communities. Established in 2017 by visionary tribal leaders from across the state, CTFC has swiftly emerged as a powerful force, providing a strong and unified voice on behalf of tribal children. At its core, CTFC aims to implement the comprehensive findings of the California ICWA Compliance Task Force, ensuring the protection and well-being of Native children while upholding tribal sovereignty. Through collaboration with its member tribes, CTFC has successfully championed key legislation that safeguards the rights and futures of Native children, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of tribal advocacy. The community surrounding CTFC is vibrant and diverse, reflecting the rich tapestry of California's tribal heritage. From the towering redwoods of Northern California to the sun-kissed beaches of the Southern coast, the state's tribal communities are deeply rooted in their ancestral lands. These communities are a testament to the resilience and strength of Native cultures, with traditions and customs passed down through generations. California is home to over 100 federally recognized tribes, each with its own unique history and traditions. The CTFC community is a melting pot of these diverse tribes, fostering an environment of cultural exchange and mutual support. The coalition provides a platform for tribal leaders, advocates, and professionals to come together, sharing their expertise and experiences to create lasting change. Working at CTFC offers staff members a front-row seat to witness the transformative power of collective action. The coalition's tireless efforts have resulted in significant legislative victories, bolstering the protection of Native children and tribal sovereignty. By joining CTFC, staff members become part of a movement that is reshaping the landscape of tribal advocacy in California and beyond. The impact of CTFC's work extends far beyond the legislative realm. By advocating for the rights and well-being of tribal children, the coalition helps create a brighter future for generations to come. CTFC's initiatives focus on ensuring that Native children have access to quality education, healthcare, and social services, empowering them to thrive in a world that often overlooks their unique needs. CTFC's commitment to collaboration and inclusivity sets it apart from other organizations. By bringing together tribal leaders, professionals, and community members, the coalition fosters an environment of shared learning and growth. Staff members have the opportunity to engage with a network of passionate individuals, each driven by a common goal: to uplift and empower Native children. In addition to the meaningful work, CTFC offers staff members a supportive and inclusive work environment. The coalition values the well-being and professional growth of its employees, providing ample opportunities for training, mentorship, and career advancement. Staff members are encouraged to bring their unique perspectives and ideas to the table, fostering a culture of innovation and creativity. The California Tribal Families Coalition is not just an organization; it is a movement. By joining CTFC, staff members become part of a community that is rewriting the narrative for tribal children, ensuring that their voices are heard and their rights protected. Together, they are building a future where every Native child can thrive, preserving tribal sovereignty and celebrating the rich cultural heritage of California's tribes.
