Cree Rose Dueker

Cree Rose Dueker (Chippewa Cree) is passionate about data, storytelling, and engagement as tools to support and sustain sovereignty. She believes that by reconnecting + rebuilding our sovereign ways of being, systems, and first foods, we can create Indigenized futures that will benefit all.

With a background working in higher education with Native nations and urban Native communities, she brings her unique experience and drive to take care of others into her work as Movement Building program manager for Native Governance Center.

Cree has lived in many different states, spending her childhood and teen years in New Jersey, New Mexico, California, and Illinois, but now calls Oregon home. Personally, she loves to spend time with family, friends, and in community — enjoying good food and music together, or just getting outside.
