Alaska Village Initiatives
AVI's mission, “to provide education, collaboration, and outreach to tribal communities in Alaska to preserve and enhance the natural resources and traditional subsistence way of life.” has benefited and advanced significantly.

Today, AVI serves the 240 remote villages of Alaska, including 45 Economic Opportunity Zones, 229 Federally Recognized Tribes, 1 Federal Indian Reserve, 34,000 K-12 socially disadvantaged students, 111,371 American Indian and Alaska Native population, and 19 USDA Tribal Conservation Districts.
