TURTLE ISLAND UNITED
NATIVE COVID-19 RESPONSE
Antinanco works with PAZA, Tree of Life, our First Nations as well as Partners for Native Nations of Turtle Island to assist Native Communities with COVID-19 relief and contribute to long-term economic, wellness and food security solutions (the “Turtle Island United” project). The Native American communities are disproportionally affected by COVID-19 due to chronic health issues such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, asthma, and cancer as a result of Indian Country's health and economic disparities. A big part of Turtle Island United is focused on helping the communities to create clean water solutions, food growing initiatives, and integrate preventative measures, nutritious foods and traditional plant medicines into everyday lifestyle. We believe that it is a critical component in improving the people’s health and wellbeing during the pandemic and beyond, taking into the account the needs of elders specifically.

“ My heart is overflowing with love and awe and inspiration over how this effort has grown from the seed of an idea. A need that had to be met spoke to hearts that listened and responded, and they gathered more hearts, and more people responded to the call to action in whatever way their skill and life allowed. And the flow of love to communities in need grew exponentially and hasn’t stopped. This is regenerating hearts and communities. This is one of many ways people are changing the world in beautiful ways today.”
