The Redding Rancheria will begin construction on a $230 million health village on March 17, aiming to transform Native healthcare with a whole-body approach. The 185,000-square-foot facility in Shasta County, Calif., will integrate Western medicine with Indigenous healing practices, offering fitness spaces, hydrotherapy, and traditional Native healers. The project, self-funded by the tribe, is set to open in 2027 and will serve both Native and non-Native patients.
We provide the independent reporting that non-Native, extractive outlets often overlook. We give our communities the context and the facts they need to make informed decisions.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government decision-making for everyone who cares about transparency about Native issues. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise. Every gift helps keep the fire burning. A monthly contribution makes the biggest impact.
