Native American Community Services of Erie & Niagara Counties, Inc.

NACS continues to strengthen and/or expand programs toward addressing the vast needs of our target population.  Our programs are now organized into four components, focused in the following key areas:

 

Community Wellbeing: NACS promotes holistic wellness for Native and non-Native individuals and communities through programs supporting mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health. We provide resources, workshops, and events that strengthen connections and resilience across our service area. 

Cultural Services: NACS honors and preserves Haudenosaunee traditions by offering cultural education, events, storytelling experiences, and language learning opportunities. These services help Native youth, adults, and elders connect with their heritage and strengthen cultural identity. 

 Economic Empowerment: NACS helps individuals and families achieve financial stability through workforce development, digital access, financial education, and essential support services like our Emergency Food Pantry. We equip community members with the skills and resources needed for lasting economic independence. 

 Family Services: NACS supports families through advocacy and access to vital services that strengthen family bonds. Programs focus on parenting support, youth engagement, and connecting families with essential community resources.
