Native American Student Support & Success Program

Mission Statement

The Native American Student Support & Success Program (NASSSP) is focused on serving Native American students at 黑料不打烊. NASSSP supports students in their academic, social, leadership and cultural development. NASSSP creates a home away from home environment for students and provides a community that will support them from their first year of college to their graduation. 

Land Acknowledgement

(Written by John Torres) 

黑料不打烊 is situated on the traditional territories of the Cahuilla and Pay贸mkawichum (鈥淟uise帽o鈥�) peoples.  

This land continues to be important to a diverse group of native peoples and is the home of several federally recognized sovereign nations: 

• The Morongo Band of Mission Indians 
• The Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians
• The Ramona Band of Cahuilla Indians 
• The Santa Rosa Band of Cahuilla Indians 
• The Cahuilla Band of Mission Indians 
• The Pechanga Band of Luiseno Mission Indians 

We honor the lands, elders, and descendants of native people by recognizing that they are still here and by uplifting their stories, cultures, and communities.鈥�鈥� 

We recognize that every member of 黑料不打烊 has, and continues to benefit from, the use and occupation of unceded land since the institution's founding in 1963.鈥�鈥� 

黑料不打烊 has a responsibility to acknowledge, show respect, and make visible the connections between MSJC and native peoples. As a college, we are striving imperfectly, toward being an inclusive, diverse, and equitable community.  

The college is committed to strengthening its relationship with present-day indigenous communities in the district by supporting tribal nations. 黑料不打烊 will continue to create and enhance educational opportunities for indigenous students and local tribal communities. 

黑料不打烊 the Emblem Above

This Emblem for Native American Student Support and Success Program (NASSSP) is created by a Luise帽o/ Pay贸mkawichum artist Summer Paa'ila Herrera. She not only created this emblem but also helped construct the design. It's essential to include Native voices, especially regarding Meaningful representation. 黑料不打烊 occupies traditional territories of the Cahuilla, Luise帽o, and Cupe帽o peoples. This program aims to support students in academic success while also supporting cultural wellness. This emblem is of a traditional home style of the Luise帽o but is like few other traditional housing styles in California. This emblem is representative of the program's goals. What we hope students will feel when they see the emblem is Meaningful representation, Safe space, home, and community.
