Building Community, Honoring Traditions
At Sacramento State's Native Student Success Center (NSSC), all students find more than just a place to study—they discover a vibrant community where their cultural traditions and values are celebrated. The Center serves as a hub where Native students come together to share knowledge, honor their heritage, and support one another on their academic journeys.
NSSC is more than a resource space; it’s a place where students engage in activities that connect them to their cultural roots while furthering their education. From talking circles and beading workshops to gardening and cultural events, students develop lasting bonds with peers who understand and share their lived experiences. In collaboration with faculty, staff, and tribal partners, students cultivate leadership skills and forge meaningful connections that extend far beyond campus.
Your support of the Native Student Success Center helps create opportunities for students to thrive both academically and culturally. When you give, you help provide:
- Academic support services and mentoring programs
- Cultural workshops and traditional activities
- Community-building events that unite students
- Programs connecting students with local tribal partners
- Resources to guide students through their college journey
Through partnerships with local tribes and the broader campus community, the Center bridges traditional values and academic excellence. Students involved in NSSC programs gain confidence, build peer networks, and connect with mentors who understand their unique experiences.
By giving to the Native Student Success Center, you help sustain this vital resource where students celebrate their cultural heritage while pursuing their degrees. Your generosity empowers students who bring diverse perspectives and experiences to Sacramento State, enriching our entire community.
