About Us

Our mission is to stop violence against Native women and children by advocating for social change in our communities.

Organized in 1996 by three founding Native women, Peggy Bird (Kewa), Darlene Correa (Laguna Pueblo) and Genne James (Navajo), the Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women (CSVANW) was created to provide support to other Native advocates working in domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, stalking and sex trafficking in New Mexico’s tribal communities.

All of us at CSVANW, like many of you, are feeling All of us at CSVANW, like many of you, are feeling a rush of emotions today. Anger, hurt, grief..we encourage you to feel these emotions and embrace them.

We are here with you in solidarity and are remembering that our movement to end violence is grounded in protecting body sovereignty . We will not back away from our belief that our relatives' right to choose is what is best for their own health and wellbeing.

Abortion care remains in place and protected in New Mexico and today we are uplifting the work of Bold Futures and Indigenous Women Rising. These partners have been on the frontline of this conversation for decades and we trust them now more than ever to help guide us all. We encourage you to follow and support their work.

On Saturday, June 11, CSVANW Training and Educatio On Saturday, June 11, CSVANW Training and Education Director Jolene Holgate attended the 2022 New Mexico Women Veterans Conference in Albuquerque, NM and spoke on gender-based violence in the military and Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. A key issue raised by Native American women veterans was around more awareness on the issue of violence and MMIW in the military community, and how can veterans and community advocate for these issues. Additionally, the conference focused on creating visibility of issues that women veterans face after completing their service in the military, such as health care, mental health support, support for mothers who are veterans, housing, homelessness, and ensuring access to VA benefits. For more information on veterans assistance, you may find the field office based on your location here: https://www.nmdvs.org/field-offices/

Today, President Biden is expected to arrive in New Mexico to meet with Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, NM congressional, and other NM leadership in the wake of multiple wild land fires. 

New Mexico is expericing an influx of wildfires due to climate change. Biden and MLG must address the violent production of oil and gas that is fueling climate catastrophe. 

Joins us TODAY at the Santa Fe country/599 railrunner station parking lot to show opposition to Biden’s climate inaction. 

😷PLEASE WEAR A MASK 😷 

We are running out of time as the Southwest continues to burn, neoliberal policies won’t save us! 
#landback now! climate justice now! #waterback now!

Rematriation of our lands and waters is the path forward to protect our communities from further climate chaos. A restoration of balance of in alignment with the original instructions held within the values and languages of our tribal Nations. We know what happens to our lands happens to our bodies. Extractive industries lead not only to the climate crisis we are experiencing now but also directly link to MMIWR. We have no time left for inaction. #landback #climatejusticenow #nofalsesolutions

Join Bold Futures for the 11th annual Family Pride Celebration!

The celebration is FREE, and features music, dancing, family-friendly activities, face painting, games, and more. Folks are welcome to bring their own food or purchase something from local food trucks.

Bold Futures acknowledges people and families of all kinds. Come by yourself, with friends, with a tia/o/x--whoever makes you feel like celebrating! Open to people of all ages, genders, and orientations.

Alcohol-Free Event*

If you would like to participate by hosting a booth, our request is that you have a free family-friendly activity for the attendees to interact with. Previous participants have offered clowns, magicians, things to color, bubbles, sports equipment, etc. You will also need to provide your own table and chairs, plus any supplies necessary for your chosen activity. If your organization is interested in tabling, please send an inquiry to victoria@boldfuturesnm.org. Spaces are limited so don’t hesitate!

*Bold Futures acknowledges that LGBTQ2S+ people have complex and varied histories with substance use, including alcohol. For some people in our communities, substance use has been accessible when other ways of addressing trauma in our lives have not. As the larger ABQ Pride is a space where some forms of substance use are permissible and prominent, we’d like Family Pride to be an alcohol-free space for our community members, especially for those in recovery. No judgment any which way, and we respect many ways that our communities decide to celebrate themselves.

Being a good relative to our LGBTQ2S+ relative is Being a good relative to our LGBTQ2S+ relative is respecting our relatives by asking and correctly using their pronouns. We cannot assume someone’s pronouns, in the same way we cannot assume someone’s name. It’s always best to confirm with a person what their name and pronouns are, especially to our LGBTQ2S+ relatives.
