Native American Faculty & Staff Association

The Native American Faculty & Staff Association is a constituent group of UC Davis. Any employee of UC Davis is eligible for membership; no verification of heritage is required. We only ask that you be committed to diversity and support fellow employees at UC Davis. The purpose of the Native American Faculty & Staff Association is to develop and maintain a support group for UC Davis staff, faculty and students which enhances and increases the presence and visibility of Native Americans and Alaskan Natives within our community. We promote employment, training and advancement of Native American staff into positions of increased responsibility and support the goals and mission of the UC system in general and specifically at UC Davis. 

We sponsor events and activities that are of interest to the membership including Native American Cultural Days, member art workshops, off-campus activities and speaking engagements.
