Join us for our 2026 Children’s Health Fair at UAII, a free, family friendly day focused on keeping our kids healthy, active, and thriving.

We are creating a space where Native children and families in LA can connect to culturally centered care, learn about nutrition, movement, and healthy lifestyles, and feel supported every step of the way. Because in our community, wellness is a circle and it starts early.

🗓 Saturday, March 28
⏰ 11am to 3pm
📍 1453 W. Temple St. Los Angeles, CA 90026

This event is free and open to the community. Bring the kids and come spend the day with us. Parking is limited.

At UAII, we are here to break barriers to care and make sure our families have access to health services that understand culture, community, and city life. See you there 💛

Tribe of the Month ☀️

We are honoring the strength of O’odham Ñiokĭ and Piipaash Chuukwer, Indigenous languages that continue to represent resilience and history. Even with fewer fluent speakers today, revitalization efforts are growing and new learners are stepping forward.

Learning to say something as simple as “good day” helps keep culture alive.

Yesterday we spent the afternoon at MacArthur Park connecting with community members in need of support while sharing food, water, blankets, pillows, and everyday essentials.

This is how UAII began. Our founders, Miriam Zucco and Baba Cooper, stepped into the streets to care for our community, and that spirit still guides us today 🧡

In a city as busy as LA, no one deserves to feel unseen. We are here. We show up. We care.

Starting or continuing college in LA can feel like a lot. Financial aid forms, picking a major, understanding campus resources, and still showing up for class every day. You do not have to figure it out alone.

Join us March 27 from 2 to 3 PM on Zoom to break down higher education basics, smart study strategies, and practical tools to help you stay focused and motivated through graduation.

Join us March 20 from 3:30 to 4:30 PM on Zoom for an important conversation on how to recognize and report hate incidents, understand the difference between a hate crime and a hate incident, and learn why so many cases are underreported in our communities.

Join us for a powerful afternoon of film, reflection, and real conversation rooted in the story of Native presence right here in Los Angeles.

UAII is partnering with the College of the Canyons community to create space that honors the long-standing history, resilience, and strength of Native peoples in the LA area. Through storytelling and dialogue, we are uplifting Native voices and reminding our community that our stories are not just history, they are living, present, and powerful.

If you are a Native student, community member, or ally who wants to deepen your understanding and connection, this space is for you. We believe healing and awareness start with gathering together.

🗓 Wednesday, March 25th
⏰ 4pm–6pm
📍 College of the Canyons
Mentry Hall 305
