Land holds stories, histories, and relationships that have too often been ignored or erased. Our new Tribal Land Access & Return Legal Toolkit is designed to equip our coalition and partners with the tools they need to support Indigenous land justice.
Inside, you’ll find a collection of practical resources and legal tools for land trusts, nonprofits, Tribal governments, and Indigenous communities to use in navigating land transfers, easements, and agreements. (Please note: some resources are Oregon-specific and may not apply in other states.)

The toolkit is organized into three baskets—Relearn, Restructure, and Rematriate—reflecting the phases conservation organizations can move through to build more equitable practices and partnerships.
Together, these tools offer pathways toward stronger relationships, shared stewardship, and a more just future.
