Who we are
About Raven Moonlight
Founded in 2022, Raven Moonlight is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering healing and cultural revitalization for Alaska Native and Indigenous communities. Our mission is to create a supportive network that empowers traditional healers, providing them with a platform to share their knowledge and practices.
We serve as a central hub for connecting healers with gatherings, conventions, and communities seeking traditional healing services. Through educational resources and training programs, we aim to preserve and promote Indigenous healing traditions.
Our vision extends beyond Alaska, as we strive to build global connections among Indigenous healers, honoring the cultural values and wisdom passed down through generations.
“Finding is not just about seeking but also about being open to the teachings present in every part of life.”
