The Big Idea
The Native American Community Development Institute is an American Indian community development intermediary—the first of its kind—created by and for American Indians. It partners with American Indian communities to build and execute 21st-century community development strategies that are asset-based, rather than deficit- or poverty-based. NACDI promotes innovative ideas and partnerships that embrace technology, entrepreneurship and community development.
