Our ITECK Certificate offers students the opportunity to engage in hands-on fieldwork and research with local, regional, federal and tribal partners, including U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Metro regional government, Portland Parks, Portland's Bureau of Environmental Services, Native American Youth and Family Center, and the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde.
Contributions directly impact students, providing honorariums and community-based learning opportunities with diverse partners at ITECK Seasonal Gatherings, field site visits and restoration work, including Oak Savanna and Camas tending, Salmon Celebrations and Food Sovereignty conferences and workshops.

We offer a supportive network of faculty, staff, alumni and community who continuously work to cultivate a sense of belonging for all our students while they pursue their educational goals and build their careers. We are leading our campus to a better future by building relationships with the land and each other.
All gifts can make a meaningful impact. Thank you for helping us empower the next generation of ITECK Leadership!
