Tribal Relations
Cal State Los Angeles (CSULA) is firmly committed to the respectful repatriation of Native American ancestral remains and cultural items. This commitment is rooted in ongoing collaboration with descendant communities to establish a thoughtful and culturally sensitive repatriation process that honors their customs, religious practices, and traditions.
CSULA is both ethically and legally dedicated to the full implementation of the Federal Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and the California Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (CalNAGPRA). These laws affirm the rights of Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian communities to reclaim their ancestral remains and cultural heritage.
