Overview
In 2023, JumpScale and Spruce Root launched the first organizational Resilience Circles to support Alaska Native impact companies and NGOs. Resilience Circles is a trauma-informed, culturally responsive program to enhance the well-being and success of growing Indigenous entrepreneurs. Our goal is to strengthen the capacities of Alaska Native enterprises for ecosystem guardianship, long-term economic resilience, comprehensive well-being and community mental health.

The Opportunity to Scale Native Business & Wellbeing
The well-being of Alaska Native and Native American entrepreneurs is an essential part of building a regenerative and thriving economy in Southeast Alaska. With basic access to capital, networks, and culture-based well-being services, Native American entrepreneurship will grow, resulting in ripple effects throughout Tribal communities, as well as the broader business ecosystem. Resilience Circles fosters and connects trusted, culturally- grounded support for entrepreneurs who are building the future of our communities.
