7 Directions of Service (7DS) is an Indigenous-led organization rooted in environmental justice and grassroots power, operating on the ancestral homelands of the Occaneechi-Saponi in rural North Carolina.
Our mission is to protect Sacred Places, advocate for the legal recognition of Rights of Nature, and establish a land, language, and cultural center grounded in traditional Yesah teachings. Through educational and cultural programming, community projects and civic engagement, 7DS is an essential force of coalition-building and cultural shift towards environmental justice and Indigenous visions of the future.
We are committed to serving as a powerful voice for the lands, waters, and the interconnected more-than-human world.
