Coming Together for
Mother Earth

Our programs are a new approach towards economic, social and cultural development.

Our Areas of Focus

Sovereignty

Land Of The Indigenous

IPN strives to restore and maintain the Native Aboriginal Indigenous cultural way of life traditionally established by the original inhabitants of Turtle Island (AMERICA as the colonizers call it), the Native-Aboriginal-Indigenous people.

Over the past year we have assimilated and distributed enormous amounts of information to the Native Aboriginal-Indigenous people in the community, as well as the general public. We continue to stimulate society by providing educational material consistent with our mission.

Sacred Sites

Protect, restore and preserve cultural, historic, and sacred sites of Native Aboriginal Indigenous people through cultural traditional values, incorporating the highest environmental standards and technologies available today.

Turtle Clan Village

The Pocasset Wampanoag Tribe of the Pokanoket Nation-Watuppa Reservation/Turtle Clan Village is the only one of its kind, the first deeded reservation in the country and a living center of clan life, ceremony, and traditional knowledge.

A Land Base

A land base, for the development of a sovereign independent Nation, created to insure with due respect to the Native Aboriginal Indigenous people, their political, economic, social and educational advancement, and just treatment.

Health Care

Health Care and Cultural Survival advocates for Indigenous Peoples’ rights and supports Indigenous communities’ self-determination, on their own healing practices and cultures.

Health Care and Cultural Survival envisions a future that respects and honors Indigenous Peoples’ inherent rights and dynamic cultures, deeply and richly interwoven in lands, languages, spiritual traditions, religions and healing beliefs and ceremonies and artistic expression, rooted in self-determination and self-governance.
