Native Nuclear

Native Nuclear is a Native-led, Native-serving nonprofit working to bridge Native communities and the nuclear energy industry through education, partnership, and advocacy. For too long, Native voices have been systemically excluded from decisions around nuclear energy and waste despite disproportionately bearing the burdens of these policies, from uranium mining to waste storage.

Native Nuclear seeks to correct these injustices by ensuring that Native people are not just included, but empowered to lead. We support pathways for Native youth and young adults to pursue careers in STEM--particularly in nuclear science, policy, and energy--while promoting tribal sovereignty, collaborative infrastructure development, and long-term community resilience.

Through partnerships with tribal nations, industry leaders, and academic institutions, we create a future where Native knowledge and values guide the development of nuclear solutions that are equitable, sustainable, and community-informed.
