Through the efforts of Native students, faculty, and administrators, the First Peoples Native Center (FPNC) was created in order to raise awareness of the contributions and continued presence of Native American and Indigenous peoples of the region. The FPNC works to serve our diverse Native and Indigenous student populations by preparing them to become lifelong learners, providing access to support services to increase retention and successful transition rates, creating traditional and culturally relevant programming, and guide students to career paths that will enable them to enrich their lives and the lives of their communities.

The FPNC offers:

Academic counselors

Social worker referrals

Financial aid and transfer assistance

Study spaces including a computer lab

Access to book and laptop loan programs

Writing tutors

We are located in the Equity Center Bldg. 16E. Equity Center hours are Monday-Thursday 8:00am-5:00pm, Friday 8:00am-4:30pm.
