Indigenous Elders Need Your Help!
Tax deductible
Why We Need Your Help
Tribal programs are severely underfunded, and may lose even more funding under the current administration. NICOA is feeling that pain, and we fear that without your financial support we may not be able to keep our doors open.
NICOA needs your financial support. We have work to do, but the advocacy and political work we do for our Elders is not free. Nothing worth fighting for is free.
We are the only voice for our Elders, and we need your help to continue to be that voice, through programming, resources, services, and advocacy for those that need it most.
Who We Are
The National Indian Council On Aging, Inc. (NICOA), the premiere National Indian Aging organization, was founded in 1976 by members of the National Tribal Chairmen’s Association that called for a national organization focused on aging American Indian and Alaska Native Elders.
NICOA’s mission is to advocate for improved comprehensive health, social services, and economic wellbeing for American Indian and Alaska Native Elders.
