Volunteer Run Since 1992
Welcome to Alternatives North
A social justice coalition in the Northwest Territories
Alternatives North acknowledges that we live and operate on treaty and unceded lands of the Dene, Métis and Inuit of the Northwest Territories. We also recognize that inherent Indigenous rights to lands, resources and self-government have not been fully implemented. We will work with Indigenous peoples when and where we can in mutually respectful relationships.
