Established in 1998, the Native American Land Conservancy (NALC) is an intertribal nonprofit organization with a mission to preserve, protect and restore sacred sites and areas, providing educational programming for Native American youth, families, and the public. NALC is involved in several advocacy efforts and volunteer initiatives to preserve cultural landscapes on both private and public lands, arranging volunteer events to help clean up and steward desert ecosystems. Led by Indigenous values, NALC also conducts scientific studies of cultural, biological, and historical resources.

NALC's acquired preserves now encompass over 2,800 acres and are growing in number, with several more acquisitions in the works. Today, NALC's work is more important than ever as development continues at an ever-increasing pace, threatening our sacred lands.
