Mission
The mission of the Mari Sandoz Society is to encourage and promote an understanding of the literary and historical works of Mari Sandoz and to honor the land and people about which she wrote.
Vision
In the spirit of Mari Sandoz, the vision of the Mari Sandoz Society will be to amplify the voices of the dispossessed and challenge the romanticized view of the West through education, publication, and outreach.
Our Guiding Principle...
Mari Sandoz advocated for Native Peoples throughout her life, and in keeping with that spirit, the Society commits itself to devote a substantial portion of its resources to prioritize Indigenous perspectives in our projects and programs. Sandoz wrote extensively about Indigenous dispossession; we likewise feel a duty to acknowledge this history and work toward reconciliation and healing.
