Built in 2011, the CNAIF \u201chome away from home\u201d is a campus hub where students can access services, attend cultural events, study, and socialize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only facility of its kind in the entire Southwest, the CNAIF provides resources that help students navigate the university and support their academic success. It is a warm gathering place for students, scholars, Tribal collaborators, the university community, and the public. On average, the CNAIF serves more than 10,000 students per year, welcomes 70,000 visitors, and hosts 465 events per year in various capacities, such as tours, educational presentations, concerts, cultural events, and student services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The center embodies Native values and symbolizes NAU\u2019s commitment to <a href=\"https:\/\/legacy.nau.edu\/president\/strategic-plan\/#dynamic-link-7\">Indigenous Peoples<\/a>. The main doors open to the east, greeting the sun every morning. Like many traditional Indigenous homes, the CNAIF has an open gathering space in the center of the building. The CNAIF also hosts a Story Room specifically designed to accommodate our students\u2019 spiritual needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The CNAIF was built with core funding from the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians of Highland, California, and the support of numerous other donors. In addition to the Office of Native American and Indigenous Advancement (ONAIA), the CNAIF houses the Office of Indigenous Student Success (OISS), which provides culturally competent, individualized support for     American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian\/Pacific Islander students through services such as Indigenous Connections to Success, Field Day, and Indigenous Peer Mentorship.<\/p>\n\n\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n<section         class=\"nau-block full-width-image-with-text-box secondary grid grid-md-12 -grid-fullwidth no-padding span-md-12  mobile-image-yes tablet-image- desktop-imageheight-  textbox-registration-bottomright  textbox-xl-width-2-3 textbox-background-true-blue  bg-true-blue-95 content-type-wysiwyg_linkbank  \">\n\n    <div class=\"full-width-image-with-text-box-picturediv\">\n\n            <picture class=\"left-nav-top-bound main\">\n            <source media=\"(min-width: 1650px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/legacy.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/207\/2023\/06\/2242_indigenous_field_day_20220826-2000x1125.jpg\">\n            <source media=\"(min-width: 1100px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/legacy.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/207\/2023\/06\/2242_indigenous_field_day_20220826-2000x800.jpg\">\n            <source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/legacy.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/207\/2023\/06\/2242_indigenous_field_day_20220826-1200x675.jpg\">\n            <img src=\"https:\/\/legacy.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/207\/2023\/06\/2242_indigenous_field_day_20220826-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Students with Ann Marie Chischilly in the field house.\">\n        <\/picture>\n    \n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"fwi-text-box  bg-true-blue-95 \">\n\n    <h2>\n    \n    Navigating the future with generational wisdom \n    <\/h2>\n\n\n    <p>The Center for Native American and Indigenous Futures (CNAIF)\u00a0also houses the <a href=\"https:\/\/legacy.nau.edu\/indigenous\/nacc-elders-program\/\">Elders\/Cultural Advisor Program<\/a> to provide students with cultural support and model the relationships students often miss while away from their home communities.
